Parti Québécois projected to form Quebec minority government
Canada’s first-past-the-post electoral system at it again: Québec’s incumbent CAQ party is on track to be wiped off the map despite getting 14% of the vote Québec Solidaire on track to win 11 seats with 11% of the vote
(And the Parti Québecois a whisker away from a majority with less than 30% of the vote)
That voter turnout is pathetic.
Something's gotta change. In BC, we have a situation where the Greens are polling at 15% and they could end up with just 2 seats. Mixed Member Prop Rep - keep your MP but vote for Party as well, add List MP Seats, minimum threshold of 10% province/nationwide. #cdnpoli
Friendly reminder that PROPORTIONAL REPRESENTATION is a REALLY GOOD IDEA and we should remain eternally mad at Justin Trudeau for (among other things) reneging on that deal. We could have had nice things, at least at the Federal level.
So the traitors who colluded with the neonazi Trump regime and the fascist #AlbertaSeparation traitors, won in #Quebec. I can’t believe how stupid and gullible people are. #QCpoli #PartiQuébécois
The PQ ( separatists) got 59 seats (60 maybe) with 28% of the votes. The Liberals got 40 seats with 24% of the votes. 🥴 We absolutely need a political reform!!
Just what the country needs when we’re in a hybrid war. Complicit confederates attacking Canada for utterly selfish reasons. www.msn.com/en-ca/news/o...
Pretty much. PQ majority means separation referendum by spring. They are a liars. All of them.
Everyone is freaking out over nothing, they will probably have a minority Govn't that means you can't get much of anything done without cooperation. The love for Canada in Quebec is at a all time high, the PQ always have about 30% of the vote share regardless. This a result of vote splitting IMO.
And so the door has been opened for the Far Right by Quebecers. Soon the shit show will begin. Remember this day, it was on you Quebec, the suffering to follow is all on you. What MAGA did in the US, Quebecers have done in Quebec. Time to pop up some popcorn and get the extra big soda & watch it
I don't understand this at all. After all the revelations this week. How could they do this???
I am so fucking angry sometimes thinking about how much the States has been screwing with Canadian provincial politics. If you're moving right politically in Canada, you're being led around by assholes who want to consume us, and not in a good way. You want things like ICE? This is how we get ICE.
Exactly THIS, Canada. And yes, that includes you too Québec.
Just checking in to the Quebec election. A lot more seats for the Liberals than expected, will form a strong opposition. And stunning jump for Quebec Conservatives. Has anyone done an explainer of why the Quebec City area has become such a Conservative bastion, federally and now provincially?
Historically, the Quebec City area and the Beauce were the strongholds federally of Social Credit/Ralliement créditiste in the 1960s, so there is precedent for a rightward tilt...
Right wing radio, and the language/immigration politics are different than Montreal suburbs.
Wow, the CAQ vote really collapsed even in relation to the last polls. Voters must have decided they were a wasted vote and gone for either Conservatives or Liberals, depending on inclination.
