The legislation, passed at the request of the Quebec premier and Montreal’s mayor, saw soldiers patrolling the streets as authorities rounded up hundreds of residents under suspicion of involvement in the abductions.
“You cannot pretend to be deeply in love with Quebec without respecting the desire of Quebecers to receive some apologies from Her Majesty’s government,” Blanchet told reporters Wednesday.
Really?!?!
as if there is not enough going on right now.
Tell the idiot to go pound sand
Why not? He is more than happy to apologize for anything any canadian government has ever done in the past. Going out of his way to do so as publicly and well televised and reported as possible.
Has anyone considered this can be I posed again today? Rounding up those who won't comply to mandatory vaccines, testing, ect? This bill was not changed. Think about it🤔. Trudeau is in discussions with EU to form a world order. SOCIALISM 😡
Of course the National Post a garbage Conservative American owned rag would jump in bed with Canadian Separatist. Like O'Toole and Trump they could care less who they jump in bed with if it's a lane to power. The Separatist can kiss my arse.
Va te faire voir M. Blanchet! Nous nous souvenons!!!
There should never be an apology. That was an act of treason that was handled appropriately!
So BQ is FLQ? The FLQ kidnapped the British trade commissioner & in less than a week kidnapped & MURDERED Quebec's Minister of Labour Laporte. Premier Bourassa requested aid from PET! Blanchet has NO respect for Quebec's Premier Bourassa & the ghost of Pierre Laporte.
Is Quebec going to apologize for the FLQ?
There's only one party I HATE more than the Liberals, and this moron is at the head of it.
I have a problem with a truncated version of history, using this version is simply fanning the flame of divisiveness. I am old enough to remember it all and t my Grandmother's real fear of the terrorist attacks in Quebec! Quebec asked for help with domestic terrorism.
Apologize to the family of those murdered by the terrorists FLQ caught by the War Measures Act. I bet France will use military today to find the terrorists in Nice today, do you want them to apologize. Shame on you ottnews jfblanchete
Seriously, people who grew up during the 70’s know it’s the government of qubeic’s fault who let the behaviour go unchecked, as carth from Star Wars would say. “It seems everyone is responsible for there actions, except for you.”
He is crazy
Blanchet needs to focus on the issues his province faces T O D A Y like the rising cases of COVID
If Justin can apologize for that , then he can apologize for the Not Withstanding Clause in the constitution , and repeal it!
Why not? He’s apologized for far less serious things.
This guy is nuts!
Screw that!
Imagine having to apologize for everyone of your parents stupid acts when you werent even alive
🙄🤐🤐
yfblanchet Why, exactly, do you want the government to apologize for a response to a terrorist organization that was homegrown in Quebec, and encouraged by its government of the time? Interesting that the Bloc seems to support domestic groups like that.
Or what blow up some mail boxes?
I remember the horror of those times. Terrorists don’t get apologies. He’s trying to distract from the horror of his own gov’ts failure against covid in Quebec.
After the Liberals are defeated in the next election, I can guarantee you will see in the years following, a similar uprising from one world groups, AKA “the sheep” I hope the Conservatives (or what ever progressive party formed)removes this cancer from Canada once and for all
Mr. Blanchet, You’re still confused how this LPC operates. They don’t apologize to us ! We apologize to them.
One of the best things he did.
Quebec asked for help! They literally asked! This is just gaslighting because they have nothing of value to add.
Haha gotta love blanchet
When will Blanchet apologize for the murders of the FLQ.
Rubbish. There is ample evidence Russia was supporting the FLQ by way of Cuba's Canadian Embassy; Canada was under attack by Russia and Cuba at the material time; LaPorte's killers went to Cuba, and Pierre Trudeau was fully justified in invoking the War Measures Act.
Really reading the moment here
So Beatmeat... screw Canadian democracy, then find something irrelevant to huff and puff about.
You know I was really starting to respect Blanchet. Up until he pulled this stunt
Um, no. At the time that it was implemented, it was necessary. It was also supported by the majority in Quebec, as well as the rest of Canada. It was even supported by the opposition. Yves needs to sit down and stop posturing.
Never ..
Sorry dude, the French went crazy and Trudeau Senior had to take charge -- désolé
Um, how about no.
I want Blanchet to apologize for kidnapping of Allan Cross & death of Pierre LaPorte
How stupid and pointless.
He should apologizing for not shaving! 😄
Finally something Trudeau can handle, apologizing for something done years ago by anyone but him.
Sure like he will actually say sorry sincerely he might just say it to make you happy or he might just not at all
I want JustinTrudeau to apologize for his fathers 1980 energy deal.
Surely he’s just kidding, right?
He’s not responsible for what his father did.
BLOC has been hanging around the cons too much these days. Well, they are both separatist parties. So I guess that is why they get along so well.
Perhaps the Quebec government should apologize for the death of Pierre Laporte. What did it do back then to deal with the FLQ?
So now Blanchet is a FLQ enthusiast. Quebec politicians asked for War Measures.
The Bloc Leader should be apologizing to Canada for its bungling of the current COVID emergency. Over 60% of the deaths in Canada come from Quebec.
Ummmm .... a cabinet minister was kidnapped and killed and mailboxes were blowing up
Embarrassed for backing Skippy now he’s a tough guy! Lol
Really! JustinTrudeau is spending money like a drunken sailor with literally billions unaccounted for and this is what a separatist is focused on? And the lame stream media is covering?
The inevitable result of victim culture.
That would be like him apologizing for the white paper or NEP
No no no. Sr had real guts and I salute him.
Both the Quebec and Montreal governments asked for the War Measures Act to be invoked. They got it. Even the opposition supported it at the time. No point in apologizing when nearly everyone was for it.
That's a stretch. More important things going on today than him going back decades to settle old scores. I lived thru' that, it was a frightening time. Don't forget Deputy Premier Pierre LaPorte was murdered. That caused the collapse of support for the org. responsible.
Give me a break
😂
Okay, why not? And then apologize to Alberta for papa's National Energy Program. This is getting stupid, even by our standards
What a great opportunity to help Blanchet's sterile role as leader of the BQ ! Another opportunity to get the ROC to kiss the *sses of Quebecers. BTW, most Millennial Quebecers couldn't care less. They are worried about jobs, video games, nookie and dope. Oh, and poutine.
It’s the province of Quebec that needs to apologize—it asked the Feds for military help.
This is why Quebec-centric Confederation is a joke. When draft-dodging Pierre Trudeau suddenly turned into a tough guy, he inflicted War Measures on the whole country because Quebec had a problem.
Sure, as soon as the BQ and the PQ apologize for the decades of separatist rhetoric, you know, the kind that gave rise to the FLQ and the resulting October Crisis.
Winnie bastard
Stupid. But, given Justin’s apology tour, this would make sense. Justin should.
And why in the middle of a Pandemic is he taking up something that happened so long ago? Did he slip on something and hit his head?
Perfect example of ‘out of time; out of place’. Hey, it’s 2020 ... there’s a pandemic.
The man that wants to destroy Canada wants an apology? Does anyone know a good Psychiatrist? Trudeau was faced with a crisis that saw one Quebec Cabinet Minister murdered, & a British Trade Commissioner kidnapped, he did the right thing.
Just shows how irrelevant QC has become. Nobody gives a s**t about life in QC. Now that separatist boomers have faded away, QC has again pulled back into their own solitude. So, revive the War Measures ('just watch me') thing. How pathetic. But our boy wonder is a sucker.
Um, Pierre Laporte was murdered. Think Blanchet should be the one apologizing.
Nobody should be apologizing for what they havn't done themselves. I think Trudeau has been awful for Canada but wtf
I want Blanchet to apologize for helping to stop energy east.
Definitely wasn’t enjoyable to live in Montreal during that time.
Well he is very good at it ,bound to have fans.
I salute that idea. 🖕
He has a lot to apologize for himself. If I remember correctly it was Quebec premier that asked Trudeau to declare the war measures act. It was domestic terrorists.
Haha. He did it at the request of the provincial government. Not on his own cause he felt like it. Whatever bullshit they can stir up to reignite the separatist movement.
One thing Trudeau does well.
I want yfblanchet to apologize for the Quebec terrorists that set off over 900 bombs and murdered Pierre Laporte
