Quebec separatists win provincial election
Original: quebec
The Parti Québécois, a party seeking independence for Quebec, has won the provincial election in Canada's French-speaking province. Its leader said after the victory that Quebec "deserves" to be "a country", reviving debate over sovereignty. The result is drawing attention across Canada and in French-speaking media, with commentators weighing what a separatist government means for the province's future and its ties to Ottawa.
Why now: A pro-independence party winning power in Quebec has reignited debate over sovereignty, a long-running and emotionally charged issue.
