Bruce Hicks, who teaches in the Department of Political Science, was on CTV Montreal News at Noon to discuss the leaders debate hosted by Radio-Canada on Sunday August 19.

Pauline Marois declared that, if her party formed the government, she would spend a modest amount of public money to promote sovereignty.
