And incompetent, like all their big ideas. A collection of opportunist mediocrities whose only skills are in the fraud that manipulates our crooked mess of an electoral system into giving them 70% of the seats with 40% of the vote.

They want to get re-elected and this is what will get them to pull in all the zero english speaking population.

I don’t believe there’s much chance the CAQ will be at any risk in the next election.

That’s what I thought until very recently, and yet the way they’re behaving feels desperate. A full-on plunge into electoralism with three years to go until the next vote. They were obviously spooked by the by-election but everything they’ve done since then, including the heavy-handed tuition business and the resurrection of a troisième lien that was dead and buried, feels like they’re running scared.
The economy is getting worse. Healthcare is getting worse by every measure. The CAQ doesn’t have much to show for their time in power. And unlike some other parties, nobody is a dyed-in-the-wool CAQiste. It’s a party of convenience. In a place with such notoriously fickle voters it might not take much for people to swing somewhere else in 2026.

Too soon to tell, but it seems many of the PQ base that shifted toward the CAQ in the last decade are being wooed back. As DeWolf explains, the CAQ support is a mile wide but an inch deep. And Legault is a long way from the ‘confident patriarch’ from spring 2020.

PSPP seems to be really having a moment. History may have changed significantly when that QS candidate decided to rip his flyers out of a mailbox.

Quebec voters can switch on a dime. You never can tell.

Pspp is having a moment because he’s not actually doing anything except talking about his imaginary country where nobody pays taxes and to paraphrase a character on the TV series The Expanse, everyone gets a pony and a blow job.

A pony and a blow job? Considering how badly the government screws up everythigng else I’ll take the pony but I’m kind of scared of what they might try to pass off as a blow job.
