François Legault

Philippe J. Fournier: The CAQ is in landslide territory despite the province’s severe outbreak—and Quebecers are feeling as good as ever about being Canadian

The next premier of Quebec may well be a Black woman and she deserves to be known by all Canadians

Paul Wells: The plans that premiers Legault and Ford released on Monday were road maps and not timetables—and there are good reasons why

Paul Wells: It was time once again for the release of new mortality projections. In Quebec, a likely best-case scenario is still a rough optimism.

Jason Markusoff: You’re a too-convenient target. There’s too much overheated political rhetoric about Alberta deficits and Quebec daycare provisions (which have nothing to do with equalization’s formula)

Alec Castonguay: You’re angry, I get it. But the source of your woes is not Quebec, where consumption of Canadian oil has in fact exploded

Paul Wells: There were parallel routs of the old-line parties, as the Liberals and PQ suffered historic drubbings. The CAQ is just what’s left over.

Paul Wells: Even the most staunchly federalist or sovereignist observers have, over the years, yearned for a normal Quebec election. And then they almost got one.

QUIZ: The Ontario NDP is offering ’change for the better’. They’re not the first. Match these campaign taglines to the leader and election.

François Legault’s promise to wean Quebec off equalization payment isn’t realistic, but it’s good politics
