OTTAWA — Franco-Ontarian Liberal MP Francis Drouin’s scatological reference against two Quebec nationalist witnesses in committee on Monday made Quebec media headlines this week — and the drama is still ongoing.

On Thursday, Drouin apologized unreservedly for his comments but the Conservative party and the Bloc Québécois want him to step down or force him of from his prestigious position as chair of the Assemblée parlementaire de la francophonie.
