Push for Quebec independence in focus at PQ convention

January 25, 2026

The campaign for an independent Quebec is beginning to take shape at a Parti Québécois convention this weekend, ahead of a provincial election that will likely be fought over the prospect of a third referendum.

Leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon urged hundreds of party members assembled Friday evening in St-Hyacinthe, a small city east of Montreal, not to give into “fear of the moment” as they plan for another vote on independence.
