## Resource

Pierre Poilievre claims Quebec separatism was erased under Stephen Harper, blaming Liberals for current separatist energy—but polls show support has stayed steady for decades. Bloc Québécois leader Christine Normandin counters by pointing to the 2012 PQ government under Conservatives and pushing to scrap the Clarity Act, which Harper’s government helped pass. Poilievre stayed silent when pressed on the Act, leaving the debate simmering with conflicting historical takes. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
