Original: Separatists Are Poised to Win Quebec’s Election. Independence Is Still a Hard Sell.
Quebec's separatist Parti Québécois is positioned to win the province's upcoming election, according to reporting by The New York Times. Yet even as the party stands to take power, outright independence remains a difficult proposition for Quebec voters, suggesting the movement's electoral appeal has outpaced support for actually leaving Canada.
Why now: Quebec's provincial election is approaching and the prospect of a separatist victory is drawing fresh attention to the province's long-running independence debate.
