Quebec party leaders gear up for second TV debate of election campaign

Quebec’s political party leaders are preparing for the second televised debate of the electoral campaign, slated for Wednesday. The inaugural debate, held on Tuesday, saw a robust exchange of views on various subjects such as the economy, Quebec’s sovereignty, and immigration policies. Christine Fréchette, the leader of Coalition Avenir Québec, was notably targeted by her opponents for scrutinizing the past eight years of her party's administration.

Fréchette endeavored to disentangle herself from her predecessor François Legault and emphasized her potential to inject much-needed stability into the province. This debate marks the second of three scheduled encounters between the leaders of five major parties: Coalition Avenir Québec, Parti Québécois, Quebec Liberals, Conservatives, and Québec solidaire.
