Québec election results. One of the smallest deciding popular vote shares in Canadian history. The new PQ government at 28% popular vote (19% counting turnout) should not assume they have a mandate. The CAQ gets 0 seats with a higher pop vote than the QS with 9 seats. FPTP isn't working.

The Green Party opposed Bill C-5 from the start. Now the Liberals want to remove one of the few limits placed on it. Bill C-5 was meant to sunset after five years, stopping its “national interest” powers from being handed to future governments. Bill C-39 erases that safeguard.
Green Party graphic on a cream background with orange and dark green text. It reads: “The Green Party opposed Bill C-5 from the start.” The graphic says Bill C-5 gave Cabinet extraordinary powers to fast-track projects it calls in the “national interest,” concentrating too much power in government, but that even Bill C-5 came with an expiry date. At the bottom is a green halftone portrait of Mark Carney in front of overlapping clock faces.Green Party graphic on a cream and orange background. Large orange text reads: “Bill C-39 removes that deadline.” It says that if the bill passes, every future government will inherit these powers, including governments with radically different priorities. Highlighted text reads: “Bill C-5 gave government too much power. Extraordinary powers should never come without an expiry date.” A large distressed “EXPIRED DATE” stamp appears across the orange lower half.

La réconciliation est une responsabilité qui nous incombe à tous. Les Verts s'engagent à traduire cette responsabilité en actions concrètes, en misant sur la transparence, la justice et des changements significatifs, aujourd'hui et chaque jour.
Graphique jaune pour la Journée nationale de la vérité et de la réconciliation. Un grand texte orange indique : « Le 30 septembre est la Journée nationale de la vérité et de la réconciliation. » Le texte rend hommage aux enfants qui ont perdu la vie dans les pensionnats, aux survivants et à leurs familles, et reconnaît les préjudices persistants du système des pensionnats ainsi que le génocide des cultures, des langues et des familles des Premières Nations, des Métis et des Inuits. Un chandail orange apparaît à droite, avec le logo du Parti vert au bas.Graphique présentant une photo en noir et blanc d’un rassemblement, avec un drapeau orange « Every Child Matters » en couleur. Le texte explique que la réconciliation ne concerne pas uniquement le passé, puisque les droits, les terres et la souveraineté des peuples autochtones continuent d’être menacés par des décisions prises aujourd’hui. Il affirme que la réconciliation signifie ne pas écarter les peuples autochtones des décisions concernant leurs terres et leur avenir, faire respecter les traités et leurs droits et compétences, et donner suite aux appels à l’action et aux appels à la justice.
