Quebec’s separatist leader threatens to play spoiler to Carney’s EU summit

Quebec's separatist government criticized Ottawa for excluding Premier St-Pierre Plamondon from the upcoming EU-Canada summit, asserting it would assert its authority over any agreements made. Justice Minister Sarrazin announced that Ottawa denied the request for the Premier to speak at the summit. St-Pierre Plamondon expressed his disappointment, suggesting Ottawa preferred trivial roles for him instead of allowing him to participate meaningfully.
