After Quebec votes for separation from Canada, armed forces from the newly-established, “Republic of Quebec,” aided by a right-wing French government, conduct sabotage against Canadian bases.
Upon hearing that the separatists rigged the election, Canadian Prime Minister Jay Carruthers, a former United Nations Major-General haunted by the recent death of his wife, dons his old uniform to combat Gilles Beauchamp, the charismatic premier who fanatically pushes Quebec toward war.
Embroiled in the conflict are Tim Bear, a First Nations fighter pilot and Suzanne Boucher, a Quebec-born, Canadian armoured regiment captain who is torn between the two factions.
As tensions heighten, Carruther’s Canadian forces battle back, but will the United Nations stop them?
