The win gives the party official status in the national assembly.
Quebec Solidaire’s Guillaume Cliche-Rivard, centre, celebrates his by-election victory with party co-spokespeople Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois, right, and Manon Masse, in Montreal, Monday, March 13, 2023.
Voters in Montreal’s downtown Saint-Henri—Sainte-Anne riding turned their backs on the Quebec Liberals in a provincial byelection Monday, choosing to elect Québec solidaire candidate Guillaume Cliche-Rivard instead. For the left-leaning Québec solidaire, the win boosts their numbers in the national assembly from 11 to 12 – the threshold for official party status – which brings a greater budget and more weight in assembly proceedings.
For the Liberals, leaderless since Dominique Anglade resigned as leader over a dispute with former Liberal MNA Marie-Claude Nichols, who now sits as an independent, the result maintains the party’s official opposition status with 19 members.
