Mr. Speaker, I want to commend my colleague's excellent speech. He basically expressed and illustrated a great irony.
The recent trade war with the Americans has led to a bit of a surge in Canadian nationalism. At the same time, the current government is making a lot of concessions. The Liberals say they want to defend Canadian sovereignty, but they are aligning themselves with American policies on the environment and when it comes to the taxes on digital giants. They want “autocratization”, that is, a greater concentration of power in the hands of cabinet ministers.
Does my colleague not think that this is yet another reason why Quebec needs to be independent now more than ever?
