Quebec's political parties are preparing for the second television debate of the election campaign, scheduled for Wednesday. The first debate took place on Tuesday, with leaders from the Coalition Avenir Québec, Parti Québécois, Quebec Liberals, Conservatives, and Québéc solidaire discussing various topics such as the economy, Quebec sovereignty, and immigration.
