I would simply like to say that my comments were not in any way critical of people who live in Quebec. On the contrary, the only people I represent are Quebeckers, and I myself am a Quebecker. However, there are some aspects of Bill 96 that conflict with the rights of Quebeckers. I felt obligated to draw attention to that.
Not only that, but Mr. Beaulieu's comments about how he knows someone who had a neighbour who, having heard that his children could not attend a French-language school, and went to see the principal, are really only hearsay. My grandparents were not entitled to enrol their children in a French-language school. I simply wanted to clarify that once again.
As my colleague Mr. Housefather said, we are all Quebeckers. We are fighting every day to defend the rights of Quebeckers.
