The Parti Québécois accuses François Legault of lacking “historical memory” because he declared that politicians were not victims of violence in Quebec, without taking into account the attack targeting Pauline Marois in 2012.
“Almost twelve years ago only, one of her predecessors was literally the victim of a political attack which came within a whisker of hitting her,” recalled Parti Québécois leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon in a tweet Monday noon.
Asked to react to the attack on Donald Trump, the Prime Minister said this on the sidelines of the Council of the Federation in Halifax: “It’s worrying for democracy in the United States. Now, we don’t have that, that violence, towards politicians in Quebec. In any case, physically. »
For Paul St-Pierre Plamondon, “it is worrying to see the Prime Minister of Quebec make such a statement, which testifies to a complete absence of historical memory on basic facts.”
The PQ leader also recalled that a shooter had gone to the National Assembly in 1984 with the intention of attacking René Lévesque.
“We have often seen sweeping statements from the Prime Minister or found that we cannot trust his word, but on this specific statement, I invite him to retract and correct quickly.”
