Quebec Conservatives Unveil Election Platform Focused on 'Pro-Family' Policies
The plan calls for $47 billion in spending cuts over five years and large tax reductions after the deficit is eliminated, Duhaime said.
- On Wednesday, the Quebec Conservative Party unveiled its election platform, promising tax cuts for families and businesses to increase Quebecers' wealth and expand health care services.
- Leader Éric Duhaime announced last week he wants to cut government spending by $47 billion over five years, aiming to eliminate the deficit within four years.
- The platform includes pledges to draft a Quebec constitution and establish a provincial national anthem, while offering residents the option to use health insurance cards for private care.
- Quebec Premier Christine Fréchette criticized the platform, warning of austerity measures similar to 2015 protests, while the party proposed simplifying building codes instead of constructing new low-income housing units.
- These measures aim to strengthen Quebec's autonomy within Canada, prioritizing market-driven solutions like rent subsidies over direct construction to manage housing and fiscal challenges ahead.
