Quebec as early numbers showed Quebeckers had voted to break away from Canada
and in effect start their own country. But as more results came in there was a
turning point, when the Canadians who wanted to stay together slowly began to
win.
It's estimated that as many as 90 percent of Quebec voters turned out to
decide the issue that has bitterly divided Quebec while at the same time
brought the rest of Canada together. For many, a Canada without Quebec is
unthinkable. Quebec is Canada's largest province, over 7 million people.
Almost all of them speak French as their first language. Many of the YES voters
want independence, because they claim their French culture is fading in the
rest of Canada, and that socially and economically they'd be better off
governing themselves.
CLAUDE LAMARCHE/YES VOTER: MY INDEPENDENCE AND CULTURE ARE IMPORTANT.
But NO federalist voters are opposed to that point of view, they believe
separation would lead to economic instability and political crisis in Quebec.
NO voters like Michael and Cielo Carin believe Quebeckers who want independence
haven't thought it through.
CELIO CARIN/NO VOTER
Canada's prime minister Jean Crethien, a Quebecker hasn't said for sure
what the Canadian government will do. If Quebec votes to succeed, the
government could accept Quebec's independence or force a Canada-wide election
on the issue.
MANUEL GALLEGUS/CBS NEWS: If the separatists win they would not declare
independence immediately, they
will first try to negotiate and compromise with the government. But regardless,
with the vote so close, Quebec remains divided and dissatisfied. Manuel

SUPER=03-Roanoke Co./File Tape;
An officer at Optical Cable says it is cancelling the sale of its stock
until the market improves.
The company expected to raise almost 22-million-dollars from it's initial
public offering.
Optical Cable wanted to use part of the money to double the size of its
plant in Roanoke County.
No word on how this move affects those plans.
The company would have had its stock traded on the (naz-DACK) NASDAQ market.

That's because they were celebrating DOG-O-Ween where pet owners decked out
the family pooch for fame and prizes.
Some families were even spotted joining in on the fun.
There was everything from biker dogs to a dog that was supposed to be a
Dolly Parton look alike.
Some owners even tried to milk the contest for everything it was worth.
