Separatism is low-priority and unpopular in Quebec just at the moment. I see no indication that the Bloc are going anywhere, despite their separatist leanings. If that flares up again I might reconsider my decision.
Note the last sentence.
So no, I wouldn't vote for the Bloc if I expected separatism to flare up shortly thereafter. As I've said before, separatism is not popular right now. That could change, at which point my opinions on the party would change.
'No longer a threat' implies to me that I think separatism is completely dead, which I don't. Nor did I say that. Nor am I likely to.
