Well in politics that's exactly how it works, the majority elects the far right, everyone has to eat shit.

And that's what leads to instability and ultimately the collapse of that government. The reality of the situation is that a narrow referendum to leave Canada will be met with incredible resistance and it's not going to happen.

A supermajority would be harder to resist both internally and externally. That's the point.

"and it's not going to happen"

Just like it didn't happen with Brexit? Just like Quebec wouldn't have become a country if it wasn't for fraud on the no side?

Brexit isn't apples to apples.

Just like it didn't happen with the Confederacy, and that was more than one state.
