Talk:Secessionist movements of Canada
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There is a Newfoundland secessionist movement. While not too serious, it enjoyed quite a revival with the Atlantic Accord dispute in 2004 between Newfoundland & Labrador and Paul Martin. Much of the movement has strong support on the Avalon Peninsula, the region where St. John's is. Other than that, I'm not sure. It would be a good idea to include it on this page. Justin Bathurst.
- I added a small part about the secessionist movement but I think it needs to be expanded greatly Canking 00:22, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
It may also be worth mentioning the partitioning of Quebec debate, i.e. the claim of some anglophone and First Nations (who held votes on the matter) residents of Quebec that some areas where they form the majority would be entitled to remain within Canada if Quebec seceded. -Nick

I'm not sure the "Red River Rebellion" was secessionist since it's not clear that it was part of Canada at the time. Dan Carkner 16:02, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
