DISAPPEARANCE OF QUÉBEC PEOPLE IN FEW DECADES.
If the immigration continues at the same pace, of 55 000 people per year (therefore more 1 million en 20 years), in combination with the impending death of baby boomers, Quebecers should disappear from here to 35 to 65 years (average 50 years).
In the next census, otherwise the following, the number of stock francophones should fall under 75% in Quebec. And under 60% to 55% in Montreal. From here to 30 years, the majority of Montrealers will be allophones.
In about 50 years Quebec culture will be a minority in Quebec, melted in a multicultural melting pot, and will have almost completely disappeared in 100 years.
He will only survive a few isolated communities that will be completely minority, accounting for only 10% of the population of Quebec. In 100 years Quebec culture will be part of folklore.
If the immigration was regional, there would have been more integration to Quebec culture. But with a massive immigration concentrated in Montreal, and now its suburbs and cities, the integration is less effective.
And as the majority of new immigrants are federalists, it is increasingly illusory to believe in the possibility of a winning referendum.
There are a few years, the decision of the PLQ, to increase the number of immigrant, to bridge the so-called demographic decline, can easily hide ulterior purpose to drown the fish in a federalist separatist tired.
With a million federalist majority immigrants since the last referendum, Quebec separation is more than an old dream.

As I was saying 20 years, independence will be made with non-Francophones , or, it will not be.
But, with its charter, Parti Quebecois party shot himsel in the foot, and put a cross on Quebec independence, targeting Muslim immigrants, with many of which are French. With the charter the PQ has alienated immigrants were more likely to vote yes in a Referendum.
The PQ has ended the only hope for Quebec culture recognized with newcomers after a winning referendum.
