Marc Miller told reporters in Ottawa Tuesday that Quebec provincial politicians seem to prefer to negotiate in public, which he says isn't the way "responsible governments" behave.
The comments from the Barreau du Québec follow Legault's statements Thursday accusing the PQ leader of prostrating himself before Ottawa regarding a Court of Appeal decision.
The case originated with a woman from the Democratic Republic of Congo who had a work permit but whose three children were denied spaces in the heavily subsidized daycare system.
Days after Quebec Premier François Legault penned a letter saying Quebec has reached its capacity to welcome refugees, community organizations say his statements are misguided.
