On October 5, 2026, separatist leaders in Quebec signaled a potential return to power in a province where they hold a majority. This election could challenge Prime Minister Mark Carney's national unity message, as the Parti Quebecois (PQ) faces a resurgence that might contradict the government's stance against President Donald Trump's trade war and annexation threats. The report indicates the PQ is eyeing a return to power, which would test Carney's ability to address Quebec's specific concerns while maintaining federal cohesion.
