Quebec Liberal Party

You know, I found one very telling moment with respect to PSPP when Charles Maillard said to him, you know, 70% of the voters don't want this referendum, right? And trying to push him that way.

And PSPP's pushback was 80% of voters don't want the Liberal Party.

I thought that was an interesting take.

It was a fabulous line.

the PSPP got 38%, blah, blah, blah, polony.

So...

What we're looking at is a situation where a lot of people are going to be shy to say that they're going to vote for the Liberals or for the CAC.

And they don't want to vote for they don't want to be offside with public opinion, but they certainly don't want to vote for the PQ.

But do you think this is changing anybody's minds? They still say 40% are undecided who they're going to vote for.

I mean, I notice the Liberals picking up a bit more momentum.

Going down a slide, do you think this has done anything so far in terms of changing minds? The

polls suggesting that are still within the margin of error.

And PSPP came out maybe not as the winner, but the guy who didn't lose anything there either.

So it's probably going to be pretty much the same in the next polls we see.

Maybe the Liberals have proven...

Because you know, Xiaomi now, he has a major deficit in terms of name recognition.

And the flip side is the Carney government has, until election day, has been very steady, going steady, if you will, with Christine Frechette and the CAC, you know, Charles Milliard and not the Liberals, because dance with the ones that brung you, and they're the ones that the dance, they have to dance with.

And they've been doing that work directly while not, you know, heavily engaged with the PLQ in Quebec.

Right, Rebecca, you get the last word.

I'm just really curious about, you know, with with the reneging on the supposed deal on the Billy Bishop Airport, when Doug Ford is going to call in from from Mark Carney to get payback.

And his position on the language file was really good.

The Liberal position on language is really good.

Remind people every time that Milliard is the only one who had the guts to stand up on a clear question of principle, that it made no sense to deprive members of the English-speaking community of documents in English that are required under the Constitution to be sent out.

And, you know, Frechette had tried to defend that.

But i- if you had to say now who you think might win this election, the last poll we saw had it pretty much neck and neck.

I know there's a poll that shows the Liberals now have moved overall into second place in one of the polls that came out.

But-

We're still within the margin of error.

You're right, 'cause all attacks were mainly on Christine Fréchette.

Yeah.

Like, clearly the PQ and the Liberals see an opportunity to grab votes, steal votes from the CQ at the moment.

And what Fréchette is doing here, and what we've heard her doing those two nights, is really to tackle the referendum issue.

No, no.

Make up your own mind, but take a look at what everyone is doing, what everyone else hasn't done, and then decide whether indeed it's going to be a toss-up between the CAC and the PQ, and indeed whether people... maybe elsewhere, are in fact looking at the Quebec Conservative Party, are in fact looking at the Quebec Liberal Party, but of course, and it's traditional, they'll never say so out loud.

I just get the impression, Aaron, that these polls are not on the money, and we may be extremely surprised on October 6th.

You know, it's funny, every time that comes up and someone questions polls, I always come back to what happened.

No matter how smart he is right now, the perception has been created by the polls, by coverage, that, oh, no, no, he's smart, though.

I mean, he's not going to win.

And that is, to a certain extent, on the Quebec Liberal Party with their, we're cleverer than everyone else,

and we'll wait until the very last minute to say who we are.
