Cutremur politic în Canada: separatiștii din Parti Quebecois câștigă alegerile în Quebec. Referendumul pentru independență revine în joc

The Parti Québécois has won the Quebec elections, marking its return to power after 12 years. This victory raises the possibility of a new independence referendum, posing a challenge for Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. The PQ secured 27% of the votes, leading over the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party. Paul Saint-Pierre Plamondon, the PQ leader, is set to become the new premier, although he may lead a minority government. He has indicated that a referendum on independence will not be pursued until after Donald Trump's presidency ends in January 2029. Despite the PQ's victory, only 31% of Quebec residents currently support independence. The election results reflect dissatisfaction with the previous government rather than a significant rise in pro-independence sentiment. Plamondon has also suggested a confrontational approach towards Ottawa regarding Quebec's rights and has proposed abolishing the monarchy in Quebec, which could have constitutional implications.
