The rest of Canada would wave goodbye and watch them burn.

I don't know. Québec having 25% of Canada's population, a GDP as good as the Scandinavian countries in Europe and also having green energy and green tech as one of its major source of revenue compared to oil in the west... With how the environment is going and how governments will globally have to phase out oil in the near future, I'd say Québec is pretty well positioned compared to the rest of Canada, with the exception of Ontario of course.

Plus it has as massive amount of minerals used in electric battery technology which has yet to be exploited.

Not exactly agreeing, but this is actually a really common attitude, for anyone from another country trying to understand. Surprisingly few Anglos have a problem with it on a cultural level, and might be tired of hearing about it, more than anything.
