Quebec election commentary - August 10, 2012

Harold Chorney, a professor in the Department of Political Science, tells The Observer that, although Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) is the most right-wing party running in the provincial election, “conservatives in the U.S., or the rest of Canada, would have trouble recognizing themselves in the policies that the CAQ has put on the table.” Coverage also appears in Metro News and iPolitics.

Bruce Hicks, who teaches in the Department of Political Science, believes the Parti Québécois leader has been ‘playing it safe’ since the start of the election campaign: The Montreal Gazette.
