Carney said the battle became a symbol of collaboration rather than domination 鈥� despite the fact the defeat led to significant attempts by the English to assimilate francophones. In response, Parti Qu茅b茅cois Leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon said the comments reflected Ottawa's "long tradition of colonialism."

On Monday, Carney did not back down. During an announcement in Ottawa, he said the resilience of francophones created the Canada that we know today, where French, English and Indigenous peoples are considered the nation's founders.

He said he began his speech last week in Quebec City 鈥� on the site of the historic battle 鈥� "by recognizing the struggle of francophones during the history of Canada. I mentioned and even stressed the efforts of some in our history to pursue a policy of assimilation."

鈥淚 said that it was because of the resilience of the French-speaking people that Canada was created, a Canada that recognizes two founding peoples and, after a certain period of time, three founding peoples, including Indigenous people."

Quebec politicians from various parties had accused Carney of attempting to rewrite history by overlooking what that famous defeat has meant to the province鈥檚 French-speaking population.

"Mark Carney delivered a speech rewriting history, presenting the conquest as the beginning of a 鈥榩artnership鈥� and 鈥榓daptation鈥� rather than 鈥榓ssimilation,鈥欌�� said provincial French-language Minister Jean-Fran莽ois Roberge in a post on X.

But Carney insisted he had acknowledged the "very difficult" moments in history in last week's speech. He had cited the Durham Report 鈥� a report to the British government recommending the assimilation of French 好色tvs by establishing the dominance of the English-speaking majority in Upper Canada, what would become Ontario. That report also recommended the deportation of the Acadians, mainly due to their refusal to swear unconditional allegiance to the Crown.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a very difficult history,鈥� Carney said Monday. "But over time, we have protected and, after another period, strengthened the French language, Quebec culture, institutions such as the Civil Code, and other institutions.聽

"And that is the genius of Canada," he added.

For his part, Bloc Qu茅b茅cois Leader Yves-Fran莽ois Blanchet called for an apology for what he considered a "deplorable mistake" on the prime minister's part. "What the prime minister of Canada said about the Plains of Abraham is unacceptable," Blanchet said.聽

The New Democrats also called for an apology. 鈥淗e (Carney) put his foot in his mouth," said the NDP's Alexandre Boulerice, the party's lone Quebec MP. "And it鈥檚 a reinterpretation of history that makes absolutely no sense to the vast majority of Quebecers."

During a weekend policy meeting, the PQ leader, who promises to hold a sovereignty referendum by 2030 if he wins the October election, focused on Carney's speech. The prime minister's comments about the so-called "partnership" had, in effect, launched the referendum campaign for Quebec independence, St-Pierre Plamondon said.

He referred to Carney as the "leader of the NO camp" 鈥� the side that would argue Quebec should stay in Canada. Carney did not acknowledge that part of St-Pierre Plamondon's statement when questioned about it on Monday.
