I understand my colleagues' point of view when they tell me that Quebec is part of Canada. Until we have proof to the contrary, we're still part of Canada.
It's not that I want to be stubborn. I just want everything to be clear. It's important for us to include Quebec and Canada. As a nation, we just want to be well represented in the decisions.
That's why we write in this manner, with a reference to the Quebec nation. Mr. Housefather's proposal to state “Canadian companies, including those from Quebec” is perfectly acceptable to me.
I just wanted to explain why we specify Quebec and Canada in our wording.
Thank you.
