Mr. Speaker, the Bloc Quebecois and the federal Conservatives are in bed together on the supreme court rhetoric. They both argue that the rule of law has no place in settling the issue of Quebec's secession, only the democratic will of the Quebec people.
If the government's position is that it is necessary to respect both the rule of law and democratic consent in this matter, will the government answer this question? How does it believe the democratic will of Quebeckers should be respected on this matter?
