Premier François Legault will make a highly-anticipated appearance on this Sunday’s episode of the popular talk show “Tout le monde en parle.” The 22nd season’s premiere episode guest list was revealed, with Legault set to join NBA champion Lugentz Dort and writer Kim Thúy on the show.
The political landscape in Quebec has been turbulent, with former Natural Resources Minister Maïté Blanchette Vézina making waves by leaving the CAQ caucus to sit as an independent, urging Premier Legault to resign. Another discontented figure, François Bonnardel, a veteran who lost his position as Minister of Public Security, expressed his dissatisfaction by skipping a recent CAQ caucus meeting.
Despite facing challenges with issues like SAAQclic and Northvolt, Premier Legault has reaffirmed his commitment to stand in the next election in 2026. The CAQ has faced setbacks, including losses in recent by-elections to the Parti Québécois (PQ). A new by-election will take place in Chicoutimi after the resignation of former minister Andrée Laforest, who is now vying for the mayor of Saguenay.
Recent polling data from Qc125 shows the CAQ with 14 percent of voting intentions, potentially resulting in no seats in Quebec. In contrast, the PQ leads with 37 percent of voting intentions, positioning them to secure a majority government.
