How influential is Quebec on Canadian politics at the moment? Is it a major force in politics or is it just an anti-Canadian pressure group like the SNP is in Scotland with England
Also who does Trudeau identity with the most, is he pro or anti frog? Id assume he likes the quebecers because of his name
Bump

>How influential is Quebec on Canadian politics at the moment?
I'm not sure what you mean. I suppose roughly proportionally? They have the same percentage of the seats in the House of Commons as they have a percentage of the country's population, so there's no issue there. Quebec MPs also aren't inherently more influential than MPs from the rest of Canada, unlike Scottish MPs in Westminster (what with the West Lothian question).
If you're referring specifically to Quebec separatism's effects on Canadian politics, they're pretty minor at the moment. The Bloc Quebecois (the Quebec separatist party representing the province in the federal government) has only a handful of seats, and popular sentiment for independence in Quebec is about as weak right now as it has ever been.

Pierre Trudeau quite LITERALLY kekolded them into non-existence

Less influence than they had 10 or 15 years ago, separatism is pretty much dead at the moment.
Trudeau is very federalist (his father was as well), the Liberal Party at both the federal and provincial level is federalist where the Bloc Québécois (federal) and the Parti Québécois (provincial) are separatist.
Bloc Québécois was the official opposition ;-;

Based reform party. The west will rise again
Having a French name or French blood really doesn't mean shit. Consider how many people in Canada have that outside of Quebec. Doesn't mean you're gonna be pro Quebec sovereignty by default or something. It's really only among those that live there and are obsessed with muh language.

>who does Trudeau identity with the most
Him and his father are/were staunch Federalists (Which means they are totally against Quebecois Nationalism). The Trudeau's are Quebeckers by birth, but that's as far as their Quebecness goes.

Good news that separatism support is low, feels bad when a constituent part of your country wants to break off
Stay united Canada
