Trudeau Chretien: Trudeau said NDP Leader Tom Mulcair believes a single vote — 50 per cent plus one — should decide whether Canada remains united, thereby resurrecting the ghost of a divided Canada not seen since the 1995 vote on Quebec secession, according to The Toronto Star. The divisions that referendum and the pain that it caused Canadians must not be repeated, said Trudeau, standing alongside Chretien. Both Trudeau and Chretien told a rally Sunday in Hamilton that an NDP government would repeal the Clarity Act, which says any referendum requires a clear question and clear majority for separation. Mulcair He wants to roll the dice. Mulcair has dismissed such criticism, saying he has fought for a united Canada his whole life but that the Clarity Act doesn’t spell out what constitutes a majority. He wants to put separation back on the table and turn the clock back 20 years, which means all of Thomas Mulcair experience in politics has simply taught him one thing: to play politics with anything and everything, including the unity of this country to gain a few votes from separatists.
