Do you want to be Canadian? Quebecers may get to choose if the Parti Québécois wins the 2026 provincial election, as PQ Leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon, who is currently leading in the polls, has pledged to hold a referendum on sovereignty if he becomes premier.

Polls suggest that roughly one in three Quebecers would vote to leave Canada. But federalists should not get too comfortable, as this is around the same proportion of Quebecers who indicated they would support sovereignty in 1994, only for the province to reject it by less than one per cent a year later.
