[edit]

I don't think federalists wanted the "status-quo". That is not what Trudeau promised.142.68.197.16 04:38, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Capitalisation

[edit]

I wasn't able to find out how, but could somebody please capitalise "Independence" and "Referendum" in the title?

Article title (possible page move)

[edit]

There is some question as to the appropriateness of the current article title, as well as the title of Quebec independence referendum, 1995.

Sovereignist or sovereigntist

[edit]

The word is spelled two different ways in this article. We ought to be consistent, though neither adjective is common in English. We *do* have an article (at least a DAB page) on sovereigntism. Sovereignism redirects to that title. Unless there is objection I suggest we use 'sovereigntist' here to be consistent with our own article title. In French there is no problem; the word is souverainiste, as in fr:Mouvement souverainiste du Québec. EdJohnston (talk) 00:50, 28 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This has been discussed previously elsewhere — "sovereigntist" is indeed the standard English spelling across all dialects. The non-standard "sovereignist" variant exists in Canadian English precisely because the Quebec sovereignty issue pushes it into closer cohabitation with the French spelling than is normal elsewhere, but even in Canada "sovereigntist" is still the more standard spelling.
