The day after their first debate in the campaign, the leaders are campaigning in Montreal on Friday, notably by participating in an “electoral summit” of the Union of Quebec Municipalities (UMQ).
The leaders should position themselves on the UMQ’s “municipal electoral platform” concerning finance and taxation, housing and housing, land use planning and infrastructure, and regional development.
In presenting its grocery list at the end of August, the UMQ notably recommended the massive construction of social and affordable housing and a review of the business model for intercity transportation.
Regarding the labor shortage, there was also a question of financially supporting a regionalization strategy for immigration and using taxation to encourage participation in the labor market.
Before going to the Sheraton Center for the UMQ summit, the leader of the Coalition avenir Québec (CAQ), François Legault, visits around 10 a.m. the CAQ electoral team in Montreal, and holds a scrum of hurry.
In the afternoon, Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois, from Québec solidaire (QS), will make a transportation commitment, and then go for a militant activity in Saint-Henri–Sainte-Anne.
At the end of the day, the leader of the Quebec Liberal Party (PLQ), Dominique Anglade, held a militant rally in the riding of Marguerite-Bourgeoys.
The leader of the Parti Québécois (PQ), Paul St-Pierre Plamondon, must distribute the “PasseClimat” at the entrance to the Honoré-Beaugrand metro station, as a reminder of his party’s objective of access to all transportation services by common in Quebec for $1 per day.
At the end of the day, the leader of the Conservative Party of Quebec (PCQ), Éric Duhaime, held a mid-campaign rally in Quebec.
