Of interest to you, I presume, is this article from a Law journal, with the fetching title,
If Quebec Secedes from Canada Can the Cree Secede from Quebec?
Douglas Sanders, 1995, U. Brit. Colum. L. Rev. 143 (1995)
http://heinonline.org/HOL/LandingPage?collection=journals&handle=hein.journals/ubclr29&div=14&id=&page=
Perhaps someone should write a follow-up article (more salient to the milieu of 2011), entitled, If Quebec doesn’t secede from Canada, could the Cree still secede from Quebec?
BTW, by sheer luck I got a copy of Richard F. Salisbury’s study, A Homeland for the Cree, contrasting conditions in 1971 to 1981… that, too, could use a sequel.
