Are we at war?

I work near the airport and all week I've been watching (and listening to... holy **** they're loud) CF-18s take off at hourly intervals... I've never seen this much fighter-jet action here before.

I'm not quite sure what's seceding means. ..I bet it's about Québec separate of the rest of Canada!?!...
If is that, they don't need to do anything, Québec will kill himself with that move...
Anyway, We had spend SO Much time out of the contry, I'm not very aware about what's going on in Québec/Canada.....
