Описание к видео Canada | Does Quebec still want independence?

In 1763, the French territory of Quebec was officially ceded to Britain, becoming a part of what would eventually become Canada. In the decades and centuries that followed, it retained its strong French-speaking identity, even as Canada became increasingly Anglophone. But starting in the 1960s, the province began its quest for independence. This led to two referendums, in 1980 and 1995. Although both saw independence defeated, in the second vote independence was defeated by the narrowest of margins. But a quarter of a century later, where do things stand now?
