English-speaking friends of Québec

Although they do not advocate the independence of Québec, and might even have voiced against it, the people listed here are considered friends of Québec because they have always defended the truth before all. Too often in political debates, patriotism and chauvinism wins over intellectual honesty.

Despite the constant flow of liefull propaganda denigrating Quebecers in the English language press of Canada, these people have the honesty to recognize, at the very least:

1. The existence of the Québec political nation
2. The legitimacy of the movement for independence
3. The validity of the core sovereignist arguments
4. The necessity and soundness of Québec's linguistic policy
