I couldn't find any polls asking the specific questions you asked. However, polls show that about half of Canadians are apathetic to the whole question

Most Canadians would accept an independent Quebec provided there was a super-majority voting for independence and Quebec didn't maintain any "ties" with the rest of Canada.

Ms. Davidson is referring to the Unity Rally when she refers to Canadians saying "we want you to stay" which was a massive federalist rally held in Quebec three days before the last referendum with about 100 000 people from the rest of Canada attending. So yes, I think it would be a terrific blow to national pride if  Quebec left, but a certain amount of apathy has set in after 30+ years of threatened seperation.
