RE: The "equal partners" agreement wasyou really don't know what you are talking about. England very graciously allowed the people of Quebec to continue their language and gave them the right to have their own civil laws, not criminal. We have been paying for this mistake ever since. Most know that this is only a game of blackmail played to our weak politicians. In my opinion having had French Canadian Prime Ministers for the last forty years or so with very short breaks between has been a disaster for Canada.
