Destination Autonomy - eBook (EN)

Destination Autonomy argues that Quebec’s place within Canada is a structural issue. Canadian federalism is toxic in its very nature. From the outset, Ottawa was endowed with excessive powers, which has consistently led it to abuse them and extend its reach through money, standards, conditions, and interference in areas of provincial jurisdiction. Against that dynamic, the book presents autonomy as a concrete method of resistance, self-assertion, and nation-building. By revisiting the battles fought in Quebec, Ontario, the Maritimes, Newfoundland, and the West, Éric Duhaime shows that real gains are won through political leverage, institutions, alliances, and precedents, not through submission or separation. He then sets out a path for Quebec: to build a fortress, strengthen its political tools, forge a broader “We,” negotiate from a position of strength, and work toward the emergence of a true Confederation.
