One thing from the crosstabs: PQ leads 47/23 among Francophones. Strong, stable majority government indeed.

Potentially 7 debates. 6 TVA duels (2 per night) and 1 RDI debate with all 4 leaders. Now that'll be fun.

308 translates that CROP as 79/40/6 in seats, which would be the highest seat count for either party in 25 years.

TCTC has 70/48/5/2 in seats. Detailed projection has Couillard and Moreau both in dead heats.

Is Legault running in a new riding or sticking w/L'Assomption? Cause he'd get walloped if he stays.

Yeah, Paquette might even be a leadership hopeful later. Though for now I'd limit that pool to Drainville, Lisée and Duchesne.

Hah: the budget "consultations" between Marceau and Paradis lasted all of 5 minutes. Paradis would've been a good PLQ leader... but doesn't fit the soft-soft, martini, conformist mold demanded by the Establishment (when the PLQ needs precisely the opposite mold IMO).

There's been conflicting reports about whether they're just reserving the name or setting up a full-fledged party.

Most of the Charter has a consensus around it. Only 2-3 provisions are the wedge ones. Marokai's right. Looking at the polls, support for sovereignty among people our age is weakest.

Who's citing a ROC news source?

On that note: ROC seems to forget that it was their beloved Charest who passed that niqab ban.

Good articles from Gagnon and Le Devoir on the state of play.

Part of the problem is that apart from Paul Wells, there's a serious lack of good ROC commentators on Quebec. The Ontarian media could help themselves by having a sovereigntist contributor. Gazette had that with Bourgault, Josée Legault and a first one whose name escapes me ATM.

All opposition parties confirmed their budget opposition. Dissolution either March 5 or 12. Legault sounded quite the turkey eager for Christmas.

The Grits tried to recruit Marian Statsny in Lévis.

I wonder who would lead the PLQ if both Couillard and Moreau lost their seats.

ROFLMAO. Speaking of FN, some Grit staffers were reprimanded for making that exact comparison on Twitter.

PLQ's Danielle St-Amand (Trois-Rivières) is retiring for health reasons. Journalist Alexis Deschênes is likely to run for the PQ.

Yolande James is retiring to spend more time with her family. Wonder how many more Pélquistes will exit.
