rrman,

As a Canuck fellow, you might be interested in Belgium's politics-by-hook-or-by-crook:

cain.ulst.ac.uk

Excerpt:
Flemish self-confidence: Increasing Flemish self-confidence can lead to longer-term stabilisation, as it could mean that the Flemish numerical majority would lose its dangerous psychological sense of minority status: in Belgium you have a majority with a minority complex and a minority with a majority complex. Were that to become established over time an accommodation between the communities-based on some concessions to the Walloons going beyond their numerical rights - might become possible, creating a climate of greater mutual confidence. [...]

Doesn't the same hold true for Canada --that is an English-speaking majority with a minority complex mixed with a cocksure French-speaking minority??
