Quebec Parties Clash on Language Housing and Taxes | Montreal News
Description
Québec’s political parties are locked in a fierce battle over language, housing, and affordability—each vying for public support with bold new proposals. The Parti Québécois wants to expand Bill 101 to CEGEPs and children of long-term temporary immigrants, framing it as a response to a “linguistic emergency.” Meanwhile, CAQ insists on fiscal discipline despite a $10 billion gap, pledging investments in seniors’ care and infrastructure. Québec Solidaire tackles the housing crisis head-on with eviction limits, illegal rental crackdowns, and a national homelessness strategy. The Liberals focus on seniors, proposing rent caps and shifting proof burdens to landlords. And the Conservatives aim to ease household budgets by slashing sales tax on used goods and rolling back carbon taxes to boost forestry jobs.
