Answer:

Canada

Step-by-step explanation:

On October 30, 1995, the French-speaking Canadian region Quebec held referendum for independence and proposed sovereignty for the province within a completely renewed economic and political partnership between Quebec and the other regions of Canada. The referendum failed with a margin of only 1 percent.

The canadian politicians pledged that they would address Quebec’s concerns and start process toward guaranteeing Quebec specific independent role and the veto option over proposed constitutional changes.
