Opinion | BY ANDREW CADDELL | September 23, 2020
Quebec Premier François Legault and Conservative Leader Erin O'Toole. Meeting with the premier last week, Mr. O'Toole endorsed Quebec’s 'provincial right' to pass the odious secularism law Bill 21, and apply Bill 101 to federal companies. In doing so, he sounded like George Wallace or Neville Chamberlain, writes Andrew Caddell. The Hill Times photographs by Andrew Meade
