The affirmation and intergovernmental relations policy called “Quebecers, our way of being Canadian” (the Policy), which the Government of Quebec unveiled in 2017, is both realistic and idealistic.
The elaboration of a national affirmation initiative in Quebec is always welcome. For proponents of Quebec’s self-conception as an internal nation free to determine its collective future, inertia cannot be relied upon as the path to recognition. Indeed, we’ve been exploring these questions for a long time, and recognition should remain a significant objective.
