We are already familiar with the separatist habit of denouncing everything that is federalist or comes from English Canada.</p>\n<p>Out of ignorance, or deliberate omission, they refused to give a statue of a Canadian Prime Minister the place it deserved on the occasion of the celebrations marking the Quebec City meetings of 1942 and 1943.</p>\n<p>I trust that the leader of the Bloc Quebecois will acknowledge his former leader has made a mistake and that justice will be done to Prime Minister Mackenzie King.</p>",
