The CaPQ strongly denounces the federal government's decision to seek removal from the Bill 96 lawsuit.

The CaPQ strongly denounces the federal government's decision to seek removal from the Bill 96 lawsuit. "This action is a clear violation of the Canadian government's duty to defend the Canadian Charter," says Myrtis Fossey, Co-Leader of the CaPQ.

"It is deeply troubling that the federal government has incorporated Bill 96 by reference into federal legislation," adds Colin Standish, Co-Leader of the CaPQ. "Significant justiciable issues are at stake!" Colin Standish further added that:

"The CaPQ reminds Ottawa that protecting citizens' fundamental human rights is a federal responsibility. Bill 96 has overstepped federal powers by:

1️. Amending the Constitution, which the federal government incorporated into their official version this summer.

2️. Seizing federal labor jurisdictions in Quebec—an illegal move.

3️. Seizing intellectual property and trademarks."
