Mr. Speaker, the Liberals' bias against Quebec's laws is clear from their stance against the notwithstanding clause. Ottawa's response is beyond belief. In its factum, the federal government justifies its attack against the notwithstanding clause by bringing up the possibility that Quebec could use it to “allow arbitrary executions or slavery”. Let me start by reassuring the government that Quebec has no interest in slavery or firing squads.
Now, when will the federal government withdraw its disrespectful factum and its unreasonable objection to the notwithstanding clause?
