Every time I see commentators from Quebec on Radio-Canada or TVA analyzing results of an election or referendum vote in Quebec, they always break down the votes into anglophone Quebecers and francophone Quebecers, thereby creating two classes of Quebecers.

These analysts are typically pro-sovereignist, talking about how the federalist cause (i.e. the Quebec liberals) are doing among francophones, etc.  Every single time I hear this, I think about moving across the river to Gatineau so that I too can become a Quebecois and drive the sovereignists mad by getting a vote.

If you live in Quebec, you’re a Quebecer.  I’m aware that drives sovereignists crazy, given their desire for an independent nation, but we live in a democracy, where everyone’s votes – man, woman, English, French, Catholic, Protesant, Muslim, etc. — count equally.

And a final aside — if Canada is divisible … Do the math.
