I doubt that there is much investment significance to the state of the Quebec separatist movement. For one thing, the Liberals are running the province now and no matter how much more popular the separatists are, the next provincial election is years away. Actually, IMO the separatists ran the province very well when they were in office. There were no corruption scandals. They were extremely friendly to immigrants, teaching them French far more earnestly and effectively than the Ontario conservatives taught immigrants English. Ontario does very little for immigrants, much less than they did many years ago. A friend of mine talked to some Quebec separatist economists and they were frank in saying that they needed to be part of a bigger trading area and they expected that if Quebec became independent that they would join the EU. In such a case I'd invest in Quebec quite heavily. But the scenario is unlikely.
