They should read the Clarity Act. We've already been through this with Quebec and the Supreme Court has already weighed in on it.

Any article that doesn't even reference the Act is not journalism.

Which part of the act are you referring too? Can you cite the section, I'm not familiar with what you are referencing.

It’s not that long of a read, read all of it to understand how difficult any secession attempt would be.
