1995 Quebec Referendum: The "No" Vote to Stay in Canada

Yes, a significant portion of Quebecers voted to remain in Canada. The 1995 Quebec sovereignty referendum asked: "Do you agree that Quebec should become sovereign...?" The "No" side won with 50.6% of the vote (49.4% Yes). Voter turnout was a historic 93.5%. This narrow margin reflected a deeply divided electorate, with millions of Quebecers choosing to maintain the federation.
