Dozens of supporters were gathered in the small parking lot where a barbecue was being held.
A few hours earlier, François Legault had admitted during his first press conference that he “was not perfect” and that he “made mistakes”.
“What mistakes did he make, asked Mr. Duhaime. What are the mistakes that Mr. Legault is ready to admit that he made during the health crisis? And is the fact that today he no longer does anything because his mistake was to take too many health measures? »
He defended himself from using the dissatisfaction of part of the population with the health measures to win votes and accused the outgoing Prime Minister of having divided the population between the vaccinated and the non-vaccinated.
The Conservative leader campaigns on respect for individual freedoms. He nevertheless believes that the means to lighten the burden of inflation will form the central question of this election.
