Challenge: A French "Falklands War" in the late twentieth century

[Sir Isaac Brock]

Plus I've always thought that Quebec yielded more influence for France from within the Canadian Federation, forcing some degree of bilinguism and biculturalism, whereas if it became independent, it would just be a weakling State surrounded by huge English-speaking neighbors and pretty much powerless.

Please tell Ségolène Royal.

So? One of the PODs could be that Gaulle doesn't support Quebecois independence of something. Who cares? How the hell else would we have some France falklands thingy? Besides that island, don't really hold anything else of significance, except maybe Guiana, but around there, there's no one strong enough to make any stand.
So what're you gonna do about it?

Woah, calm yourself there sparky. I'm just telling you why that particular idea might not work without some finesse, not that you're not allowed to try. But if you just want to ignore the facts, we have these things called ASB that you can play with.

I know. On top of being incredibly rude to Canada, it's not even a wise idea from the pov of French interests. I guess it's "ASB politics"...
