What the anti-Pequist coalition reveals

What the anti-Pequist coalition reveals

We found out on Thursday: CAQ, PLQ and QS agreed on resource distribution and speaking times In the National Assembly.

In a word, they shared a large portion and left only small pieces to PQ.

Their reason: They generally adhere to the rule of determining each other’s rights according to the number of seats obtained.

Parliament

But this argument does not exist in the case of radically distorting the results of the elections, as happened on October 3.

PLQ, QS and PQ are equally popular (note that PLQ has less support among francophones).

A reform of the voting system is not the way to be favorable, as it generally serves the people of Quebec well, and parliamentary reforms must take into account the actual weight of the parties in the National Assembly. This will not happen.

But how to explain the anti-Pequist coalition?

Essentially, fearing the PQ’s permanent return to political life, it was considered dead two months ago.

Everyone has their reasons.

The CAQ fears that the PQ will bring back nationalist voters, which will not fail to disappoint.

QS fears that the PQ will win voters by countering its vocist leftism with a reasonable progressivism that can speak to the middle classes.

Democracy

As for the PLQ, it was so appalled to find its political marginalization that it clung like desperate pathos to its official opposition title, and that was all that remained.

And all fear that the national question will return actively.

In other words, the PQ is once again becoming a subversive party that can disrupt the political game and unspoken attacks on the basic principles of democracy, which means everyone fends for themselves.
