The prime minister was asked if he’ll pursue a governing pact with the NDP. “No,” he said.
And why not, the reporter asked.
“Why?” Carney retorted.
The PM said the Liberals campaigned on a clear set of objectives, and while they didn’t quite get a majority, “we will be putting forth legislation that’s consistent with our platform.”
I agree that ignoring 4.6% of the provincial population is misguided. I’m certainly not advocating for it, but that’s the reality.
In the context of Bill 21, what does it mean to take a bill seriously when it doesn’t affect you? As far as I’m concerned, the Liberals would never implement something like that nationwide even if they were forced to more significantly rely on BQ for support.
We don’t have to be affected to oppose bills that restrict liberties. As a muslim and francophone i want jews and christian to be free to wear their signs and protect anglophone minorities in montreal.
Most muslims including those who don’t practice believe that wearing the hijab is a religious obligation but it’s not enforcable by people. Just like muslims who don’t do praying obligation aren’t forced to pray.
Liberals are contesting the bills and i feel like bloc will try to force them to stop in exchange for an alliance
