The Quebec Liberals wasted no time in denouncing the Parti Québécois’ proposal to give an independent Quebec its own currency as the sovereigntist party wraps a weekend meeting.

PQ Leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon told reporters Saturday that an independent Quebec would have its own currency, a transition from the Canadian dollar that could take up to 10 years.
