Ben Woodfinden: François Legault is now the most powerful politician in Canada cdnpoli
Admirers and critics alike agree that the key to the CAQ’s fortunes is that under Legault, the party has found the “sweet spot” in Quebec’s distinct political landscape. He has managed to champion a strong cultural nationalism and desire to protect Quebec’s distinct identity while also moving the nationalist question away from a push for outright sovereignty. He has also managed to sell himself and the CAQ as a party that cares about Quebec’s economy and wants to make Quebec wealthier.
The Liberal government in Ottawa is getting long in the tooth and faces its most serious challenge since 2015 in newly minted Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre. If the Liberals are going to have any hope at maintaining power in the next election, whenever that is, their path to victory is going to run through Quebec as it always does.
