it will look like this, with Ottawa on the edge of the big piece
No it wouldn't. It would look like this. Northern Quebec belongs to the First Nations people. It would not be a giant hole in the middle and they can develop an extension of the trans Canada highway through northern Quebec so people don't have to cross Quebec to get to to atlantic Canada. https://www.google.ca/search?q=how+c...Qd0Er-BBIIrFM:
But none of this matters anyway because Quebec will never separate.
Technically, the Nunavik (Northern Quebec) is a municipality, not a reserve. Although I'm sure the Inuit would have their say in the mater, the region is very much part of Quebec.

There you go again. I could C&P my initial response of just point you to post #18. You (and I) have absolutely no idea about what would happen with Quebec partition or lack thereof if Quebec did actually separate from Canada.
As for your last sentence, I believe that Quebec is indeed unlikely to separate. I use unlikely because I am not going to pretend that public opinion in Quebec or anywhere else is perfectly predictable.

I'm not talking about Nunavuk only I'm talking about the entire land that belongs to the to the first nations (there are many reserves in the province). It can not just be given to an independant Quebec just because they want it, it doesn't work that way. Because that is the land of the first nations, it will always belong to Canada.

I would encourage you to read up on this more. It's not as simple as you are making it out to be.

It's not as simple as the entirety of Quebec splitting too.... And I already know the constitution, you can't take away first nation's land to make a new country...

Nunavik is the northern half of Quebec. It's not the same as Nunavut, which is a Canadian territory north of Quebec. There is no such thing as "Nunavuk".
And no, there are no First Nations reserves in Nunavik. Who says the Cree and Inuit wouldn't want to remain in Quebec anyway? Many would say that they are better off in Quebec than many other First Nations elsewhere in Canada.

It was a spelling error... I know the difference and I am well aware of the provinces and territories in my country since I was like 8 years old.

Yes, there are First Nations reserves in Quebec... What are you talking about? A simple Google search will list them all. Are you seriously saying there is a chance First Nations people would want to stay with Quebec? Are you joking? Canada treats its First Nations people like gold through the benefits they get, Quebec wouldn't barely have enough money to sustain itself as a nation, let alone give money for First Nations benefits. In what universe would they be better off? Your statement must have been a joke... Not to mention everyone knows First Nations land belongs to Canada and we have had a constitutional agreement with them since the beginning. So your statement doesn't make any sense. This is why Quebec would be a much smaller country than the current province in Canada, and Quebec will just have to deal with it if the issue of separation ever came up.
Anyway, il n'y a pire sourd que celui qui ne veut entendre...
