Québec Constitution... a crazy notion... for a great Nation

This crazy idea won’t fly. For one thing, Dumont rejects the PQ identity bill… thus far. But let's talk about Marois first.

The PQ has “defined” itself, again. Pauline Marois advocates that Québec prevents Quebecers from running for office or fundraise for political parties unless they passed a French test.

Until we hear otherwise, Dumont is rejecting it, apparently, mostly because it strips immigrants some rights unless they learn French. The proposed bill could survive with the Action Démocratique du Québec's support. But Dumont said the legislation is rough, flawed and most likely unconstitutional.

Of course, the PLQ has indicated this new idea deserves "shelving".
