Last month, after the federal government filed its factum with the Supreme Court in the case of English Montreal School Board v. Attorney General of Quebec, Justice Minister Sean Fraser stood accused by a Bloc Québécois MP of wanting to rewrite the Constitution.

“On the contrary, we do not want to change the Constitution,” Fraser said. “We want to give the Supreme Court the opportunity to clarify the Constitution.”
