Quebec party leaders wrapping up another week of election campaign

On the 30th day of Quebec's provincial election campaign, political party leaders are actively campaigning across the province with immigration and artificial intelligence as key issues. The Coalition Avenir Québec, Quebec Liberal Party, Québec solidaire, Parti Québécois, and Conservative Party of Quebec are all vying for voter support ahead of the Oct. 5 election.

Liberal Leader Charles Milliard criticized PQ Leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon for his plans to significantly decrease the number of immigrants in Quebec, arguing that such a reduction would be detrimental to the province. In response, Plamondon pledged to cut the number of temporary immigrants in Quebec from 500,000 to 250,000.

Plamondon spent his day in meetings, including a visit to Montreal City Hall where he spoke with Mayor Soraya Martinez Ferrada.
