I think the thread-starter fails to realize the importance of maintaining a cultural identity, particularly when Quebec's neighbours wield so much influence in so many key areas. It's almost akin to why the CRTC exists or to why we have to hear Massari on the radio three times a day, even :p
"Living next to you [the U.S.]is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, one is affected by every twitch and grunt."
