Mr. Speaker, today, in this House, French-speaking members from outside Quebec were criticized on a few occasions. We also heard the Bloc Quebecois claim to be the protector of Francophonie outside Quebec. I wish to correct that view and make a comment based on an article published yesterday in a New Brunswick newspaper, L'Acadie Nouvelle , and written by the editor, Mr. Nelson Landry. The article is entitled The flower and the pot :
Following the war of words involving the Fédération des communautés francophones et acadienne du Canada, the FCFA, and Bloc Quebecois member Suzanne Tremblay, the two sides respectively deserve the flower and the pot.
