All I can say is that this is a major political issue. I never felt that I was against Quebec. I love Quebec a lot and I hope that it will remain a part of Canada. That is my personal opinion. I was working for the government at the time and it was not up to me to decide what to do for this government. Regardless, I was never against Quebec or Quebeckers. I just wanted to state that for the record.
