This is an interview with Quebec writer Bernard Dubé, who works for an English newspaper. He speaks about the situation of French-speaking people in Quebec. They are questioning whether their position in relation to English-speaking people can be improved and whether separation is the means to do this. The need for people in Quebec to be bilingual in order to get a job is discussed. Dubé feels that the French language is endangered because Quebec is "isolated or a small island in the sea of English in North America". He says the present struggle in Quebec is more profound and more "thought-out" than the historical, bitter, separatist anxiety about Quebec's survival. Pointing out that the leading separatists are almost all bilingual, he says they are not opposed to everything that is English. Rather, they want to reaffirm what is French. The separatist movement is not anti-English but is pro-French. Dubé speaks about his bilingual family and the difference he feels when with relatives who speak only French. He says, "In this country I am French-Canadian and outside this country I am Canadian."
