World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported53m ago
Voters in Quebec are heading to the polls in a provincial election that may return the Parti Québécois to power for the first time in over a decade. The party has campaigned on a platform that includes a commitment to hold a referendum on independence from Canada by 2028 if they are elected.
The election represents a potential shift in the region's political landscape, as the separatist party currently leads in the polls. A victory would mark a significant return for the movement, which has been out of government for more than ten years.
