MONTREAL — The annual convention of Quebec’s leftist sovereigntist party starts tonight in Montreal with five months to go before the Oct. 5 election.
Québec solidaire is positioning itself as the only true option for Quebec’s progressives.
With 11 of 125 seats, Quebec solidaire is polling behind the Parti Québécois, Liberals, Coalition Avenir Québec and Conservatives.
Poll aggregator Qc125.com says the party would drop to seven seats if an election were held today.
