Abstract
In recent times, the question of Quebec's position within Canada has come to the forefront. Although French separatism is not a new phenomenon in Canada, the victory of the independist Parti Quebecois in the 1976 provincial elections has made the possibility of eventual independence for Quebec greater than ever before. Any question of political change north of its border carries an obvious import for the United States. The central thrust of this essay is to propose a
possible scerlario for the solution of the present conflict
between Canada and Quebec. There are most likely many
plausible solutions to this problem. Nevertheless, the
uncertainty of the situation has promoted the belief that
a solution within the framework of the present Canadian
Confederation is the only alternative to political unrest
and possible violence. Based on Karl Deutsch's theory
of regional integration, developed in his book, Political
Community and the North Atlantic Area, a scenario including
an independent Quebec will be developed.
