This would not surprise me at all. From talking to folks there is this weird thing in Québec where a lot more people trust AI.

They absolutely should not. Another good listen from @coolzonemedia.bsky.social / @iwriteok.bsky.social : youtu.be/Q1dRFv28PiQ?... #QCpoli

Woah Quebec is quite the outlier with its support of AI. Any theories why?

For the opposition, the real work starts: shadow cabinets, staff and, for some, a referendum debate.

Pour l'opposition, le vrai travail commence : cabinets fantômes, équipes et, pour certains, un débat référendaire.

A vote for the PQ isn't a vote for sovereignty. It won by channelling frustration and the desire for change.

Un vote pour le PQ n'est pas un vote pour la souveraineté. Il a canalisé la frustration et le désir de changement.

Marc Miller nails it, as usual. Paul St-Pierre Plamondon needs reminding that he is Premier-designate of all Quebec people, not just the less than 1/3 who are separatists.

My election night analysis with Lola Kalder on @citynewsmtl.bsky.social 🗳️

Zero seats for the CAQ. PQ minority, PLQ at 40, PCQ the wild card.

Mon analyse de la soirée électorale avec Lola Kalder à CityNews : zéro siège pour la CAQ, PQ minoritaire, PLQ à 40, le PCQ comme joker.

The two cents no one asked for:

It seems that what little rejoicing there is in #Quebec after yesterday's election stems from the perceived annihilation of the CAQ.

...except that it's not dead. It just split into two parties, the PQ and the PCQ. #qcpoli

At some point in the next few days Christine Frechette will convene an outgoing cabinet meeting before the PQ takes over.

Here’s how Pierre Trudeau addressed the issue of his defeat two days earlier in 1979.

Anyone talking about last night’s #QCPoli election without hitting on the extremely strong desire to wipe the CAQ off the map shouldn’t be taking about last night’s election.

That was the driving force of almost 90% of the voters last night.
Sure, discuss options: PQ vs Lib vs QS etc but CAQ was #1

so we learn that in 19 ridings in Quebec the voters believed that the spending cuts promised by the cons wouldn't be on any of the things that *they* like and that there could be no unintended consequences

First-past-the-post has produced yet another kaleidoscope legislature in Quebec. Hard to look past the fact that if the CAQ had introduced proportional representation, they’d have about 17 seats instead of being completely wiped out. #qcpoli #electoralreform
