He said the Liberal party agrees with the Supreme Court’s 1998 decision that a referendum result needs a clear majority for Quebec to secede from Canada.
The NDP said a majority of 50 per cent plus one would suffice.
Trudeau said the NDP’s position on Quebec sovereignty is unclear and it needs to better explain why it disagrees with the Supreme Court.
