Legault’s Coalition has its support base outside Montreal, and it isn’t afraid of making policy decisions it knows are going to be massively unpopular with English speakers

MONTREAL — Last March, Quebec Premier Francois Legault made a mocking remark in the legislature that the Liberals are still talking about.

“It’s frustrating, because it’s not the tone you want to hear from the premier,” Kelley said of Legault’s March comments. Born to a Quebecois mother and a Trinidadian father, Skeete — a Laval native — is as comfortable in French as he is in English. And he defends his boss. QCGN, an anglo-rights advocacy organization, had successfully lobbied the Liberal government in 2017 to create an office dedicated to the concerns of the province’s main linguistic minority, called the secretariat for relations with English-speaking Quebecers.

“Where was the secretariat on that?” asked Kelley. “I have a lot of serious reserves and doubts that the secretariat is executing its mandate.”French-language schools in Montreal have been overflowing for years, he said, and the Liberals let the problem fester during their time in power.
