Ok, Here is the thing, some in the ROC should not automatically assume that ''every'' Quebecer should be affiliated with the Bloc Quebecois or sovereignist political party for that matter. There are some Federalists in the province of Quebec that might be prouder Canadians than some in Canada.

Here are the results from the last election

Federal party Votes Seats

Bloc Quebecois..........1,379,462..........49 seats
Conservatives.............784,560...........10 seats
Liberal.......................858,664...........14 seats
NDP..........................441,120............1 seat
Independent................23,106............1 seat

That means that the Federalist parties, Libs and Conservatives alone, (not counting the other ones) got more votes within Quebec than the Bloc Quebecois altogether. So that should mean something here.
