Whereas the decision on its future within Canada lies with the Québécois nation, not the federal government;

And whereas the Québécois nation has laws that give its government both the right to consult the people of Québec by means of a referendum on the subjects of its choice and the right to determine the wording of the referendum question;


2000, ch. 26

Now, therefore, His Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate and House of Commons of Canada, enacts as follows:

Repeal

1The Clarity Act, chapter 26 of the Statutes of Canada, 2000, is repealed.
