@Waters not gonna argue against quebec having a unique identity and all that, its all true 100%. Texas and Cascadia definitely do have modern separatist movements and unique cultures though. And i more think its very silly that we are removing russia, one of the most storied and important nations when it comes to hockey, when there were applicants to keep them. That is where my gripes lie. I understand that there are people who want to play for Quebec. But I don’t think it should come at the expense of team Russia. Quebecois already have Canada to play for, and if they really want to support their french side, team france also exists
