Blanchet says Poilievre should work to improve justice system, not rely on notwithstanding clause
Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet, speaking in Quebec City on Day 23 of the election campaign, was asked about Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre's plan to use the notwithstanding clause in federal legislation. Blanchet responded, 'When you are in the position of a person that wants to be prime minister of Canada, you should rely more on improving [the] justice system and laws than removing yourself from their application.'
