I don't see it as hatred (such a strong word), I see it as frustration. It has been hanging over the rest of Canada for so long that most people just want it over one way or another.

I would prefer to have Quebec as a part of Canada who is equal to all the other provinces, because each province and territory is itself unique. If Quebec insists on receiving more 'special' treatment in order to remain a part of Canada I would have no problem with them leaving.

If you really want a place with lots of friendly people, go to Newfoundland. You'll be treated great and even though you can't understand the language ( ) you feel great.
Nova Scotia is pretty good too, actually the whole East Coast is pretty friendly to visitors.
I couldn't agree more. It's amazing how those on the East Coast can make you feel like you've been around forever, and treat you like an old friend. There was a rumor a while back that 90% of Newfie jokes were started in Newfoundland. Wouldn't surprise me one bit.
