Ignatieff: Quebec

Quebec Sovereignty Movement Dept: It's a kind of way station you stop there for a while, Mr. Ignatieff said, according to Globe and Mail. Asked by his Scottish interviewer whether he was talking about independence for both Quebec and Scotland, Mr. Ignatieff replied: I think, eventually, that's where it goes. As an example, Mr. Ignatieff pointed to Canada's experience with the Quebec sovereignty movement; he said Canada reacted by transferring power to Quebec to satisfy its growing aspirations for autonomy but he suggested that situation is only temporary. But I think the logic, eventually, is independence. Full independence. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
