Mr. Speaker, since this morning, we have been hearing the Conservatives and Liberals basically singing the same tune, one after the other. They are wondering how the Bloc Québécois could have chosen such an unimportant subject when there are so many more important things to talk about than the monarchy.
However, the monarchy is the head of state, the person at the very top of the pyramid. Is that not important? We are talking about the person under whose authority we vote on all of our laws. Is that not important?
I would like to know what my colleague thinks about what those two parties are saying on this subject and, more importantly, what that means.
Does this not mean that that they are unable to defend their position because it is not really defensible?
