So this one time only opportunity to buy Canada Canada is in the midst of its worst crisis ever. The problem: French-speaking Quebec, the largest of Canada's 10 provinces, is demanding recognition as a culturally separate society. Today's problems actually began before the American Revolution, in 1763, when the British defeated the French for control of "New France" and encouraged the population to retain their French language and culture. Thus, when "Lower Canada" (now Quebec) and three English-speaking colonies formed what we now know as Canada in 1867, Quebec's French culture had been flourishing for two centuries. In the early 1960s Quebec began to reject the English culture surrounding it.

Quebec separatists formed the Front for the Liberation of Quebec and committed numerous terrorist acts in the 1960s and '70s. In 1976 Quebec elected its first provincial government dedicated to separating from the rest of Canada. In 1968 bilingual Quebecer Pierre Trudeau became prime minister. Trudeau's position was that no part of Canada would ever have to secede to protect its citizens' rights.
