Mathieu Bock-Côté defended the arrival of Jacinthe-Ève Arel in the Parti québécois, arguing that her right-wing positions should not exclude her from the civic space. He recalled that she had sometimes seen qualities in Donald Trump, severely criticized health measures during the pandemic, and argued that there were only two sexes. Bock-Côté specified that he was not commenting on the merits of these opinions, but that they could be contested without justifying, in his view, Arel's exclusion. He accused members of Québec solidaire of demanding Arel's dismissal and wanting to ban her from political life. He also criticized some Péquistes who had relayed this indignation and claimed that Arel did not have a place in the PQ. According to him, the party was a coalition that could welcome social democrats, progressives, conservatives, and libertarians. Bock-Côté argued that the independence of Quebec was the common ground for Péquistes, despite their disagreements on the model of society. He believed that the sovereignist movement should also welcome people close to Éric Duhaime's ideas, and presented Arel's membership in the independence camp as a contribution to this cause. #Québec #Indépendance #Politique (translated)

Jon De Lorraine stated that the National Assembly had adopted a socialist amendment creating a tax on Internet data. According to him, this would amount to €0.055 per gigabyte transmitted to French internet users, or €55 per terabyte, and would be paid by digital content providers, notably Google, Meta, Amazon, and Netflix. He indicated that the socialists hoped to raise €10 billion per year from it. Although companies are officially liable for the tax, Jon De Lorraine estimated that they could pass the cost on to consumer subscriptions and decried a new tax. #France #Fiscalité #Internet (translated)

Paul St-Pierre Plamondon said he took note of Mark Carney's offer to give him a seat at the VIP table as an observer, without the right to speak or a mandate to negotiate on behalf of Quebec. He described this proposal as a request made to Quebec to submit and renounce its role in defending the economic and political interests of Quebeckers, adding that he would refuse such a situation if he were prime minister. He condemned what he described as a strategy aimed at marginalizing Quebec internationally and subordinating its competencies to the decisions of the federal government. According to him, all party leaders in the National Assembly had stated the day before that they expected to speak and participate fully in a summit held in Quebec. He also said that the leader of the official opposition in Ottawa and that of the Bloc Québécois supported his request. Plamondon added that he had written to representatives of the European Union to remind them that agreements between Europe and Quebec had to go through the Quebec government, especially if a summit was held on its territory. He also mentioned the refusal to allow him to speak to welcome guests. He proposed a bilateral discussion and announced that he would send Quebec's chief diplomat, Pascal Paradis, to initiate the exchanges. #Québec #Politique #International (translated)
