Quebec's separatist leader threatens to play spoiler to Carney's EU summit
Quebec's new premier, Paul St-Pierre Plamondon, whose government backs the province's separation from Canada, wants a bigger role in relations with the European Union. The headline says he threatens to play spoiler to Carney's summit with the EU.
The new separatist government of Quebec, a Canadian province, wants a larger role in ties with the European Union. That is the subject of a Politico Europe article whose headline says the province's new premier, Paul St-Pierre Plamondon, threatens to play spoiler to Carney's EU summit.
According to the article's summary, Quebec is staking a claim in areas such as natural resources. The premier is described as envisaging a longer-term push for the province's independence.
The available text of the article gives no further details, such as when and where the summit will take place, what specific steps the Quebec government plans, or how the federal government has responded. Those details are therefore not reported here.
