Quebec party leaders make final pitches to voters ahead of Monday’s vote

Montreal - The main party leaders of Quebec are making their final appeals to voters as Monday's provincial election approaches. Parti Québécois leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon emphasizes the need for change after eight years of Coalition Avenir Québec rule, while polls indicate his party is leading the race.

His rivals, however, warn against selecting a party that has pledged to hold a sovereignty referendum before the end of its first term. Coalition Avenir Québec leader Christine Fréchette argues her party offers an alternative by focusing on national pride and economic development within Canada. Liberal leader Charles Milliard positions his party as the sole federalist choice, urging voters to strategically vote for his candidates to prevent a PQ government.
