Voters Lacking Auditory Capabilities
The Quebec government is facing a tough road ahead, as potential threats to social peace and concerns over indoctrination of children in public places have been raised due to prayer in public spaces and the wearing of religious symbols by daycare educators. This issue, along with a series of other challenges, could pose significant hurdles for the CAQ government in the coming months.
Prime Minister François Legault may be considering triggering by-elections as soon as possible, but the outcome could be costly for taxpayers, as two by-elections could potentially double the cost. The CAQ has already faced setbacks in by-elections, with the PQ winning the last three held in CAQ-held ridings, and its victory in the upcoming two seeming virtually assured.
The parliamentary session has been postponed by two weeks, starting on September 30, leaving one year and five days until the next general elections. The CAQ's promise of great autonomy within Canada has hit a wall during the Trudeau years, but Mr. Legault considers Mark Carney a friend.
Economically, the Legault government's situation is reminiscent of that of Jean Charest in February 2011, who was defeated in his own riding after proroguing the parliamentary session. Despite a predicted three billion dollar decrease in the deficit for the current year, a significant increase in spending is not foreseeable. François Legault, however, expressed satisfaction with his legacy so far and would like Quebecers to remember his economic record above all.
The Gallant Commission's report on the SAAQ fiasco is expected by mid-December, which could fuel conversations during the holiday period. The coming months will see fierce competition to capture voter attention, with the much-awaited Carney government budget and municipal elections overshadowing Mr. Legault's message.
In an attempt to reverse the trend that could cause the disappearance of its entire delegation, the CAQ deputy of Chauveau, Sylvain Lévesque, has concluded that the Legault government has two "eternities" to do so. Catherine Fournier has put an end to the "bad theater" that divided Longueuil, offering a glimmer of hope for the CAQ.
However, voters may have developed a deafness to empty speeches and broken promises, which could make upcoming events like a cabinet reshuffle and new parliamentary session less effective. Mr. Legault has decided to propose giving Quebec its own constitution, a discussion that has been ongoing for 60 years.
In conclusion, the CAQ government faces a challenging road ahead, with potential threats to social peace, economic concerns, and a voter base that may be growing deaf to political promises. The government will need to navigate these challenges carefully to secure its position in the upcoming elections.
