Quebec isn't a nation... And yes Galchenyuk's dad did play for Belarus and not the Soviets anymore was... wait for it... because the Soviet Union broke a part and ceased to exist! - mr.peanut
Dans une déclaration aux Communes, le premier ministre court-circuite le Bloc québécois en présentant sa propre motion reconnaissant que les « Québécois forment une nation au sein d'un Canada uni. »

Best "useless" statement ever introduced in the house of common. Gives no power to Qc, cheap politics to try to buy some vote and shut up the bloc. - Symba007
its cute when anybody points to it as anything more than lip service.

That's a nice deflect.
The point was that even the PM thinks Québec is a distinct nation.
And for the record, the most useless statement ever was said by Robert Bourassa, his 'Quoiqu'on dise'.
Le Canada anglais doit comprendre de façon très claire que, quoi qu'on dise et quoi qu'on fasse, le Québec est, aujourd'hui et pour toujours, une société distincte, libre et capable d'assumer son destin et son développement

Wrong. The point is that the PM might think it or not. It might have been all about popularity.

So you go on about how you disagree with the belief system or the 'Conservative view' of Western Canada that Harper carries, but when he says something that you agree with what he thinks is all fine and dandy?

Depends if it's the English or French definition of nation.
He's using the French one, so according to the Tories, the Quebecois, even though not a country (which would be the English definition), are a distinct nation, like the Cris, Mics-Macs or Montagnais.
