Oh, Speaking of DFW...: The Bloc Quebecois

I just learned yesterday that the Bloc Quebecois - featured in Wallace's Infinite Jest as the militant Quebec separatist group that promotes its cause through a secret terrorist organization of wheelchair assassins - is NOT in fact fictional, but a real political party. !!

You can see where I got confused.

All this time I thought the idea of Quebec separatism was FUNNY.
