Separatists Take Quebec Government
The separatist Quebec Party won the provincial elections in Canadian Quebec, but it did not secure an outright majority to form a government on its own, winning about 60 seats out of 127, short of the 64 needed. This forces it to rely on support from opposition parties. The party, led by Paul Saint-Pierre Plamondon, has pledged to hold a third referendum on independence from Canada, considering the preservation of Quebec’s French-speaking identity a matter of survival and aiming for the population to decide their future themselves. Despite its victory, support for independence in Quebec remains low, and the new government is expected to face opposition from parties against the referendum, while the "Quebec Solidarity" party could play a decisive role in shaping the final decision. This comes amid political tensions and economic challenges in the province, where Quebec enjoys significant autonomy, with another separation referendum approaching in Alberta.
