Is it over for Quebec’s François Legault?

from Front Burner

Quebec has introduced a new bill that would ban prayer in public spaces. It’s the latest in a series of recent moves by the province to reinforce Quebec’s secularist values. It comes as Premier François Legault is embroiled in a spending scandal and polls that show he’s the least popular provincial leader in the country. Will falling back on Quebec values and stoking anti-immigrant sentiment work in his favour? And if Legault and the Coalition Avenir Quebec are on the outs, is it time for the Parti Quebecois and the separatist movement to make a comeback?Martin Patriquin, Quebec correspondent for The Logic, takes us through the province’s state of affairs.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts
