Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Deputy Prime Minister.
This morning, we learned that Quebeckers are massively opposed to the Supreme Court reference on Quebec's right to decide its own future. Nine out of ten Quebeckers said that the democratic will of the people should take precedence over a Supreme Court decision.
Will the Deputy Prime Minister admit that this public rejection signals the failure of Plan B and of the hard line approach backed by the Prime Minister, the Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs and the entire government?
