Didn't say that. It's pretty much admitted now that the federal government did a lot of shady (as in, illegal) things to prevent Québec from winning the referendums. Kinda funny to think about the US as being pro-self-determination for once, and Canada being the oppressive, anti-democratic guy.

    Pro-self determination by making a three paragraph question out of "do you want to separate from Canada" that imagined all sorts of insane agreements that could never happen.

    Also, the US interfering is anything but self-determination. Just look at their other "pro-self-determination" interferences; it is delusional to imagine that a separate Quebec would be any different.
