Provincial Election 2026 — Where Does the Race Really Stand?

The latest polls: who's rising, who's falling, who's surprising;
-the CAQ's comeback;
-the PQ still in the lead, but less dominant;
-the recent decline of the PLQ;
-the PCQ's progression;
-the situation of QS;
-the impact of international politics, especially American, on the Quebec campaign;
-the weight of Trump in debates on the economy, sovereignty, tariffs, and the Quebec–Ottawa relationship.
We will also dedicate a segment to Black candidacies, and especially to the difference between having a large number of candidates and having candidates in ridings that are actually winnable.
According to our current compilation:
47 Black candidacies across 29 ridings, including 27 women. CAQ: 14, PLQ: 14, PCQ: 9, PQ: 7, QS: 3.
For the roundtable:
Jean Numa: which party has best understood the electorate so far, and which one has run the wrong campaign?
Irénée: which issue will truly decide the outcome: the CAQ's record, cost of living, sovereignty, or Trump?
I also invite each of you to bring a topic of your own choosing, related to political, social, economic, or community news, that you feel is important to put on the table.
We will close with some predictions: winning party, seat surprises, a riding to watch, and the possible number of Black members elected.
