List 3 reasons why Canada wants Quebec to not become their own country.

For approximately the same reason why Americans would not want

New York State to separate.

The Canadian government don't want Quebec to separate

because

Quebec:

- provides a large chunk of Canada's GDP with key industries

(aerospatial, medical...)

- is about a quarter of the population ( 8 millions out of

33)

- has a lot of natural resources (electricity, lumber, ore),

- holds a strategic location with the st-Lawrence seaway and

would isolate the maritime provinces (NFL, NS, NB, PEI) from the

rest of Canada.

- have few federal infrastructures on its territory

- is home of investments of very influencial corporations to the

Canadian gov and for which Quebec's separation could diminish their

revenues (ie Paul Desmarais's Power corporation)

Geopoliticaly, there is also the fear among some Canadians that

a Canada without Quebec would further increase Canada's cultural

assimilation to the US and potentialy make it US puppet state or

51st state in the very long term.

So bottom line: Quebec's independence would weaken Canada
