Quebec's premier will ask Trudeau to explain Canadian ban on Puigdemont visit

The Premier of Quebec, François Legault, expressed his surprise that Canada had decided to deny permission for a visit to the country by exiled Catalan president, Carles Puigdemont, which was to include a visit to the National Assembly of Quebec. Puigdemont had been invited to the country by Maxime Laporte, president of leading Quebec cultural organization the Société Saint-Jean-Batiste de Montreal (SSJB). However, the Canadian authorities revoked the travel permission he had been granted just one day before the scheduled departure date.

For this reason, Legault told media: "I don't understand the federal government's decision. I'm baffled. I would like Justin Trudeau's government to explain its decision," he said. "At present it appears that it shouldn't be rejected," he added.
