Sunday in Saguenay. “In reality, this is a five-way fight, where each side stands with unique propositions”.
The day before, Mr. Nadeau-Dubois declared that “in Sherbrooke, we are in a fight of two, in Quebec the campaign is more of a fight of two”.

A call to separatists
From the first leaders’ debate, Paul Saint-Pierre Plamondon appealed to the lost sovereigns at the CAQ. “We run a direct campaign, we are proud of what we have come up with.
