Lire le communiqué | | Communications du secteur culturel | Le projet de loi C-10 pourra continuer son chemin à travers les étapes menant à son adoption : l’ADISQ salue l’action du gouvernement libéral et du Bloc Québécois Grâce à une motion d’attribution de temps pour permettre la conclusion à courte échéance de sa lecture par article déposée par le gouvernement libéral et appuyée par le Bloc Québécois, le projet de loi C-10 a aujourd’hui entrepris son dernier droit à l’étape du comité parlementaire. S’il paraît aujourd’hui improbable que C-10 soit adopté et sanctionné avant la fin de la présente session parlementaire, l’ADISQ est néanmoins soulagée de constater que les stratagèmes mis en place par le Parti conservateur pour en bloquer l’avancement prendront fin.
