They might not like it, but can the parties really afford to go back to the polls? not only that but the wrath of the quebec people if they have to go to the election booth around the St-Jean time…

I wouldn’t be surprised if one of the parties either walks out of the National assembly, or don’t show up at all…like the ADQ did yesterday…

Well, as I said, Vicky.. I’m suggesting they may not go to the polls if they defeat the government on this.

There will not be an election in quebec. Not this soon. This is just political theatrics.

I agree… but .. I believe the possibility of the LG asking the ADQ to form the government as an alternative is very real.

What is more likely to happen is that the PQ and ADQ won’t have everybody in the house come vote time. The ADQ did this the other day - there was a vote that could have been a confidence motion, and the ADQ had one MNA present. By keeping most of the troops home, both parties can say they voted against the budget but not risk actually defeating the government.
