Quebec has tried to separate twice in the past 50 years, and comes within a Brexit's margin of actually getting it done (and if it wasn't for Montreal, they'd already be gone).
The seed of that separation was, naturally, caused by a military conflict between what would become Western Canada and what used to be Upper Canada.
Canada isn't actually as stable a country as Ottawa might have you believe.
