Carney is MAD for getting bypassed! Quebec’s new Premier, PSPP, sent out 59 letters to American Senators and State Governors to promote economic ties between Quebec and their respective States. When Carney found out, he WARNED PSPP that trade was of federal jurisdiction. This is what PSPP had to say about it: PSPP: “Mr. Carney would like us to stay off the ice and never set foot on the rink because he wants the entire rink to himself. But we, in Quebec, have always claimed our rightful place. That’s what I’m doing with these letters, and that’s what previous governments have done. And he’s being a little contradictory because he says that if you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu. So, I don’t know which Mr. Carney to actually believes…” JOURNALIST: So your intention is not to go around him, if that’s what you’re suggesting. PSPP: “What I’m saying is that I will do what I believe is in the best interests of Quebec and Quebecers, because I am the Premier of Quebec, and Mr. Carney is not my boss. He cannot stop me from doing what we have always done. That means having an international presence that allows us to represent our interests. So, expect to see, over the coming months, a Quebec that takes its rightful place on the world stage. I said it during the election campaign.”
