TO visit the Carrefour International (“International Crossroads”) theatre festival in Québec City is – for me, as a theatre critic, journalist and a Scot of pro-indy sympathies – to be faced with a series of fascinating parallels.
Conventional wisdom might have it that the Scots have far more in common with English-speaking Canada (from the massive Scottish community in Toronto to the Caledonian-named province of Nova Scotia) than they have with the predominantly French-speaking, former French colony of Québec.
