It sure was a close call.  As someone who voted yes, I can honestly say 
that I'm satified with the results.  I don't believe Quebec or Canada are 
ready for seperation, but I do believe that it is inevitable.  As some of 
the other responses indicate accuratly, les independantist will never be 
satified with just plain old distinct society (I'm not thats for sure), 
and more and more quebecois are realizing that, and agreeing with it.  I 
think I can safely say that a protion of quebecois nationalists who are 
federalists (such as Claude Ryan) feel the same way.

To get to my point (which is always difficult for me to do), I say that I 
am satisfied because I think these results will open the door to change, 
and I hope that Bouchard will have the guts to go out there and milk 
Ottawa for all she's got.  I think its time we free ALL the provinces 
from the HEAVY federal machine!

Here's to social peace and inclusion.
