Quebec is a province within a country.   It has rejected becoming a country more than once.   It is a net beneficiary economically (and, some would say politically) of being within Canada.

That's the difference.   Quebec is within Canada and refuses to recognze rights that are enforced elsewhere within the country.

Furthermore, I've travelled within Europe and elsewhere.   I've studied Asian and European languages and am opening to studying more.   I've never encountered such closed-minded nonsense as I've seen in Quebec, except, perhaps, in Belgium.
