Answer:

Quebec is unique cause it is a Francophone province, and the cultural differences have caused separatist movements and tensions in Canada.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quebec is a province in Canada. It is a province located in the southwestern part of the country, being the most populous one and one of the most developed economically. Quebec though is different from the other Canadian provinces and territories, especially when it comes to culture.

Quebec is the only Canadian province/territory that is Francophone. Basically, the dominant culture and language are French, not English as in the rest of Canada. Being the most developed and having an excellent location on top of it, has led the people of Quebec, guided by politicians, of course, to want indpendence as they don't feel like they belong in Canada but that they have all characteristics to be a sovereign country. The Canadian government doesn't like this and despite several referendums in Quebec being FOR independence, it has never been accepted by the government and is considered illegal.
