I understand your point.  In the context of a question it shouldn't be
all that important.   People should know long in advance what Yes
means and what Non means.

The problem is that it isn't clear long in advance.  The PQ government
made it quite clear that they are asking for a mandate to negotiate an
association deal with Canada.  That it wasn't a unilateral
independence declaration.

We've come to see this as very deceiving and dishonest.  We don't
perceive the PQ Government of having any real intention of proceeding
with anything but a drive towards total independance.  The inclusion
of the association provisions were only there to gain sufficient vote
for a 50+1 total.
