Reply to comment by DonDove in Canada: Quebec separatist party calls for split with British monarchy - BBC News by chemistrynerd1994

The only time that vote ever came anywhere near close was the time the question was deliberately obfuscating to the point where people didn't understand what was being asked.

Every single time the question was presented in a way people could actually understand the answer has been a resounding NO.
