While he has still not received an answer from the prime minister Philippe Couillard, regarding the design of rolling stock electrical, the leader of the Parti québécois, Jean-François Lisée, began the meeting of the Assembly is not asking… no question!

Asked to explain his gesture, Mr. Lisée said the journaldequebec.com that “the failures of the government to be liberal electrification [train, Peugeot-Citroën, bus] are so obvious that they do not call for issues”.

When he took the floor on Wednesday, the leader of the opposition official reiterated that the prime minister had still not said which would be constructed the trains of the electrical Network, metropolitan (REM), stating that this would not be in Quebec.

He also complained that the government is going “shoot the plogue” on a draft assembly plant in Bromont and that only 1% of school buses built in St-Jérôme are electrical, adding that the government had instead “decided to give an additional advantage to diesel buses built in Georgia and in the United States”.

He finished his intervention by stating: “there are Three folders where you could move forward on the rolling stock electrical in Quebec, there are three folders where the liberal government fails, has nothing to present, prefers the stranger to the construction in quebec. I didn’t even have questions.”

“In spite of everything, give us an answer, mr prime minister”, asked the president of the national Assembly, Jacques Chagnon.

Not knowing “what to do”, the prime minister proposed to his rival to “work [its] final a little bit”.
