Tensions with Quebec over future of the notwithstanding clause won't impact health-care talks: Trudeau cdnpoli
That prompted a strong reaction from Quebec Premier François Legault, who took to Twitter to say that Trudeau’s expressed desire was a “frontal attack” on Quebec’s ability to protect its collective rights and that no Quebec government has ever adhered to the 1982 Constitution Act, which he said “does not recognize the Quebec nation.”
“In some ways it’s not really a direct confrontation because he can simply say, ‘Well, cabinet is posing these questions to the Supreme Court to get clarity on whether there are any other limitations on the notwithstanding clause’,” he said, adding that he does not think Quebec has “much to be threatened by” in regards to a reference case.
Apart from getting a Supreme Court reference, the federal government has limited means in terms of stopping provinces from using the notwithstanding clause.
