Plan B?

The federal government issues a warrant for the arrest of the senior
members of the Parti Quebecois.

The Surete du Quebec is probably asked to fill it.  They can do either
of three things:  a) act on it   b) ignore it   c) tell the Government
of Canada to piss off.

Most likely scenario 'B'.  Delaying action.   They'll not support the
motion but similarly, as a police unit, they'll want to stay out of
acting like the new Quebec army.  This will only provide the
Government of Canada a more moral right to do what they'll do anyway:

Declare Martial Law or whatever it's called.

This will be the most difficult moment for the government of Canada.
No government can send troops into a territory without getting a
massive backlash in return.   But if their is another way it escapes
me.

The government of Quebec will be dissolved.  All adminstration
functions will be transferred to Ottawa.   Revenue Quebec will be
disbanded as a number of other redundant departments.   Civil servants
in Quebec city will be offerred a transfer to Ottawa to run the Quebec
government from there.   Those that refuse will be summarily released.

Federal employees will man all Quebec instituations to transfer mail
and communications to the new Ottawa headquarters.

Ottawa issues a statement that this is only temporary and all
administrative positions in Quebec will be returned to Quebec.  They
also inform the population that new elections will be held.

Ottawa will make Montreal a special economic center.   They will also
reduce taxes.

Now, listen closely.

The government of Canada separates the adminstration into units.
There are three to five units each handling their own territory.

Over the course of 12-18 months these units have services transferred
to headquarters in the georgraphical region of the unit.  Over time,
the number of services transferred increases.

All computer based services are provided by a computers in Ottawa.
Only terminals are in the new headquarters of each unit.  This is to
allow all programming and upgrades to be done centrally and to help
coordinate traffic between the units.  So Ottawa says.

These units become territories.

Elections are held in each of the territories to elect officials.

Eventually, the territories lobby Ottawa to become provinces.

Canada has four new French provinces.

Now, there are 9 English and 4 French provinces.  A much healthier
balance.
