The Wingham Advance-Times, 1976-11-11, Page 130 f1 TH' a • �� � A a e f •,r T p g o ed� oval op�n�on hursday, November 1 1 il ..... f� ry� 100 • Quebec's future in question Strangely enough, most Canadians have been more concerned about and Interested In the American presidential election than they harve been in the Impending Quebec provincial election. Next week voters In that province will cast their ballots — and their decision is vitally Important to every Canadian. Removed, as we are, from personal knowledge. of Quebec politics, it comes as a shock to learn that Premier Robert, •- Bourassa is personally unpopular to so many in hid province. Predictions are that the premier and his liberal party may be thrown out of office. Defeat of the Liberals in Quebec would mean that the Parti Quebecois would form the next government under the premiership of Rene Levesque, whose avowed goal is to remove Quebec from the Canadian con- federation. Levesque is "Mr. Separatist". Claude Ryan, the prestigious editor of Montreal's Le Devoir, predicts that if the PQ is victorious Levesque will immediately petition the federal government to turn over all its control of Quebec,to the province. Ryan says Ottawa will refuse and a referendum will then be called in Quebec to determine whether or not a majority of its voters want to separate from the rest of Canada. The most interesting part of Ryan's pro- jection is his belief that the referendum would fail. He predicts that the majority of Quebecers would opt for remaining in con- federation. It is also interesting to note how much times have changed. A little over 100 years ago a similar situation in the United States resulted in one of the bloodiest civil wars in history. When the southern states decideq to form their own confederacy they took up arms. The wounds suffered In that conflict have not healed to this day. The possibility of settling the question of a Quebec separation by gun power is unthinkable. Should Mr. Ryan be proven wrong and should Quebec decide to go Its own separate way the consequences to both French- and English-speaking Canadians would be deplorable. Both parts of the country would survive, no doubt, but neither could expect to face a promising future. Dependence upon outside capital, particularly in Quebec, would be multiplied and the aggregate credit to back such borrowings would be seriously impaired. Canada, as a whole, cannot develop without capital funds from abroad. As we are all aware, so much of the investment money has come from the U.S. that we are in fear we have sold our birthright for a "mess of business". Imagine how much worse it would be it both Canada and a separated Quebec found they had to sell out to the oil -rich Arab nations. And you'd better believe it. The Arabs are confidently expecting the western world to do its borrowing in the East. Despite our mutterings to the contrary, English Canada would suffer a deep and painful loss should Quebec decide to separate. The presence of the French heritage within our confederation has made a vast contribution to -our -national stature. The irritations between the two elements during the past couple of decades have arisen because Quebec has come of age. It is no longer a province of uneducated villagers. It is a vigorous enclave of people who insist, quite rightly, on an equal place in the nation. ............ < :+ r r% I i q 4y i . <az ,W- MGAMcHur "I thought we could purge mother-in-law while we Fere at it.
