NDP Newbie Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Did they siphon a lot of Liberal votes, or was Charest enough to placate right-leaning Liberals? Or did they get more votes from separatists who disagree with the social democratic agenda of the PQ? Or yet still, did they encourage disenfranchised libertarians (the ADQ's platform seems to be more right-libtertarian than conservative) and conservatives who would otherwise have stayed home to vote? Even though I may not agree with them, they do need a voice in Quebec's national assembly to ensure that everyone's views have a chance to be represented.

Pellaken Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 the ADQ vote was largly Quebec right-wing naitonalists. Quebec Nationalisim is not just confined to the right or left wing. Nationalisim is related to Seperatisim, and the PQ had previously got most of these votes. some Right-wing Nationalists voted liberal. The problem is simple. The Liberals are right-wing Federalists The PQ are left-wing Nationalists so, the ADQ came along, Right-wing Nationalist now, we need a left-wing federalist party Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
