Conservative Party of Québec

The government of the CAQ finally adopted the bill respecting the laicity of the State. This law provoked intense and emotional debates that went beyond the traditional “left-right” fracture lines.  Even within the Conservative Party of Québec, opinions diverge, and discussions have been lively. I propose to discuss here the principles of the law and to add my humble opinion on this thorny subject. I will limit my discussion primarily to restrictions on rights and freedoms imposed on Quebecers by the law.

For immediate release THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY OF QUEBEC HAS MORE MEMBERS THAN THE CAQ Montreal, March 16th, 2021 - The Conservative Party of Québec (PCQ) now has 12 222 members after a membership marathon led by the two leadership candidates and held on Monday evening, March 15th. This is more than the CAQ (11,500) on the eve of the last election in 2018. Several members of the CAQ have gone to the PCQ for a year, disappointed by the sanitary drift of the Legault government and its lack of control of public finances. The PCQ has already increased its membership 20-fold since last fall. The two candidates for the leadership of the PCQ, Daniel Brisson and Éric Duhaime, wish to establish this party in the National Assembly as of the next election. A second debate between the two candidates will be presented live on early April. More information will follow soon. The leadership race was sparked last fall by the announcement of the resignation of PCQ leader Adrien Pouliot. He will leave the reins of the Party on April 17th, 2021, when the members will choose the new leader. -30- Source: André Valiquette Communications Director Conservative Party of Québec Phone. : 514 [email protected]
