Quebec Liberal Party election platform developments

Overview

During the Quebec election campaign, the Quebec Liberal Party (PLQ), led by Charles Milliard, has introduced several platform commitments focused on housing, infrastructure, and resource management.

Initially, the PLQ pledged to address the housing crisis by building 100,000 units annually through increased prefabricated production and faster municipal permit processing. The party also proposed a 25-year, $195 billion Quebec Infrastructure Program (PQI) to prioritize asset maintenance.

As the campaign progressed, Milliard expanded the party's policy scope to include forestry and transportation. The PLQ proposed modernizing the forestry sector by decentralizing decision-making and prioritizing local wood processing. Additionally, the party committed to expanding Highway 30 to manage traffic volumes, proposing the addition of lanes and dynamic management to support public transit and freight.
