DISSENTING OPINION BY THE BLOC QUÉBECOIS

For reasons of intellectual consistency, the Bloc Québécois cannot support the process that led to the adoption of this report.

As absurd as it may seem, the recommendations were adopted before the draft report on Canada’s trade policy was studied. This goes against all reason.

How can a committee amend a text that supports previously adopted recommendations, other than to agree with them? Since the Bloc Québécois voted against most of the recommendations and wrote a dissenting report, it is impossible for it to rework a text that supports recommendations that go against the interests of Quebec.
