After a second Quebec sovereignty referendum on October 30, 1995, the province of Quebec voted to become a nation. Ten days after the referendum results, Quebec was independent. Quebec's borders were shortened, however Canada transferred its Atlantic provinces to the new Quebec nation, which became the two autonomous regions.
In 2020, a referendum will ask citizens of Saint Pierre and Miquelon if they wish to join Quebec.
