Mr. Speaker, the mind boggles at the Liberals' and the Conservatives' debate over which party's actions are more inspired by John A. Macdonald. What Quebeckers remember John A. Macdonald for is his statement that Louis Riel would hang though every dog in Quebec bark in his favour. That is John A. Macdonald's legacy in Quebec.
I can hardly believe what I am hearing, especially on the heels of the Prime Minister's remarks about the Plains of Abraham and how the conquest was the best thing since sliced bread. I see no reason why we should be part of this country.
