that's what a decade of the CAQ brings... but hey, at least they spent $300+ millions for an exhibition hockey game and made sure Muslims were discriminated a bit harder... that's a legacy Legault can be proud of

And will get even worse under PQ.

I'm wondering why the PQ is doing so much better than Quebec solidaire.. name recognition only? Some specific policies? I would think they're quite aligned with Quebec values, pourtant...

The new leader is very good at fear based manipulation while it is important to protect the language and culture, PQ view is too radical and ultra nationalistic, he has very similar rhetoric to Trump . He still portray Quebec as a Canadian colony , believe in immigrant contribution to criminality, blaming them for the lack of housing and jobs , calling people who disagree with his vision a fake Quebecois , believing in the The Century Initiative as a way to assimilate the Quebec identity while the goal is to grow Canada's population to 100 million by the year 2100 through increased immigration and infrastructure development to boost long-term economic prosperity. He even called QS a woke party as if it is a bad thing .

And you're saying that these sad characteristics are actually what makes PQ popular, basically? 🤦‍♂️

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

I believe so

Cutting public services will cost us all dearly...
It would be good if conservative people understood this basic reality.

Hope the conservative liberal Carney would to

Dont worry. We'll fix the problem with a $12B grocery rebate from the gov't (which goes straight into the pockets of the grocery cartel)
