What we can confirm

Available economic analyses do not affirm that separation would strengthen Quebec's GDP or trade relationships. The strongest identified research instead projects economic disruption and lower output, especially through disturbed trade with the rest of Canada. Pro-independence analysis argues that an independent Quebec could be financially viable or generate administrative savings, but that is not equivalent to evidence that separation would produce stronger GDP and trade relationships.
