In Montreal's first federal debate, leaders Mark Carney, Pierre Poilievre, Yves-Francois Blanchet, and Jagmeet Singh tackled key issues including the U.S. trade war and housing. Blanchet challenged Carney on his political inexperience and negotiation skills concerning trade agreements. Meanwhile, both Blanchet and Singh aimed to rally support for a minority government, arguing it would better reflect Quebec's needs and enhance legislative productivity. The exclusion of Green Party co-Leader Jonathan Pedneault also sparked discussions about representation in political debates, emphasizing the competitive nature of these elections.
Blanchet took a swipe at Carney, criticizing his lack of political experience and negotiation proof on trade agreements during a heated debate exchange.
Singh argued that the NDP had been productive during their alliance with the Liberals, pushing for a minority government to influence Quebec interests.
