Quebec is a province within Canada and has little jurisdiction outside of its 
geographic 
borders. It's not a country...

A good example are internet poker game sites and similar activities on the net.
The Quebec agency which regulates all lotteries and similar activities cannot 
do anything
about people playing on the internet  or forbid the organizations
outside of Quebec to propose these activities.

They cannot sue outsiders on the net except if they are located in the province.
They can in theory sue players residing in Quebec
but they never did so. Playing a poker game here is illegal if it involves money
if you do not ask for a permit, even in a charity event.

They are not even able to forbid these type of activities in native reserves
within the province :) It would trigger a war.... 
There's a bunch of servers running poker web sites near Montreal in a Mohawk
reserve and you will never see cops going there to seize the equipment.

Looks to me more like an attorney bad trip than a serious facts analysis.
