Last weekend for Quebec election campaign
The leaders of Quebec's five main parties will make their last pitches to undecided voters over the weekend, with the election set for Monday.
Montreal - With just a few days remaining in the election campaign, the leaders of Quebec's five main political parties are making their final appeals to undecided voters. The election is scheduled for Monday.
The Parti Québécois, which has consistently led the polls, has promised a referendum on independence for Quebec in 2029. PQ leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon has faced criticism from his rivals, who argue that the referendum could lead to political instability and negatively impact Quebec's economy. However, St-Pierre Plamondon maintains that his opponents are merely trying to secure a last-minute victory and urges Quebecers to support his goal of securing a majority government.
In addition to the PQ, the Quebec Liberals, Quebec Conservatives, Quebec Solidaire, and the Coalition Avenir Québec are all expected to gain seats in the legislature on Monday. As of now, approximately one-quarter of eligible Quebec voters have already cast their ballots through early voting.
