Quebec expected to be two-way race in 2019, all eyes on Québec City region, say strategists

Léger’s Christian Bourque says with the Conservative Party’s recent growth in Quebec, the ‘race is on’ between it and the Liberals for seats in the province in 2019.

Quebec is on course to become a two-way race between Justin Trudeau's Liberal Party and Andrew Scheer's Conservatives, with the Liberals likely eyeing NDP seats while the Conservatives eye current Bloc Québécois ridings. All four parties, along with Maxime Bernier's new venture, could be looking to Québec City and its surrounding region next election. The Hill Times photographs by Andrew Meade
