If there's one thing that Quebeckers hate more than Canada, it's the United States.
The United States, perhaps, but I don't believe they hate Americans. Whenever I have travelled throughout Quebec just as soon as people understand that I am not from Ontario (I grew up in Michigan and still sound like I could be from Ontario) they have been very friendly and quite understanding that I don't speak French.
My comment was intended somewhat in jest, or at least the strength of the choice of words used, but it is nonetheless the case that I have a strong feeling Quebec would not be caught dead as a state in America, and if given the choice between being a part of Canada and a part of America, would overwhelmingly choose to stay in Canada.
