Quebec’s Pauline Marois explains why Saskatchewan’s Brad Wall is ‘sneaky’

BLAINVILLE, Que. – Quebec Premier Pauline Marois is explaining why she thinks Saskatchewan’s Brad Wall is sneaky.

Marois used Quebecois slang last week to describe her Prairie counterpart as a sneaky person who always tries to trip her up.

Asked today about her remark, Marois says she caught Wall allegedly trying to relegate one of her recent labour proposals into the appendix of a joint document rather than including it among the main arguments.

Marois says she and Wall differ in their thinking — though she insists she gets along with all Canadian premiers.

Wall responded to Marois’s comment Monday by saying in French that he only ever tries to trip up Saskatchewan’s official Opposition NDP.

He says he plans to work at the next round of provincial premiers’ meetings with Marois — as long as she still has Quebec’s top job after the April 7 election.
