(8 points) Quebec is a large province in eastern Canada, and is the only Canadian province with a predominantly French-speaking population. Historically there has been debate over whether Quebec should secede from Canada and establish itself as an independent, sovereign nation. In a survey of 800 Quebec residents, 28% thought that Quebec should separate from Canada. Interestingly, many Texans feel the same way about Texas seceding from the United States. A poll of 500 Texans found that 18% thought that the state of Texas should separate from the United States.
