Parti Québécois wins a minority in Quebec

5 Oct 2026, 10:00 pm

Voters in Quebec have elected members of the National Assembly. The Parti Québécois has been elected to a minority government. The ruling Coalition Avenir Quebec is described as facing an electoral wipeout. The election is the Quebec provincial vote.

A minority government is the status reported for the Parti Québécois. That status means the result was not reported as a majority. The Coalition Avenir Quebec is the party that had been ruling. The word used for its result is wipeout.

The chamber being elected is the National Assembly. The province is Quebec. The country is Canada. The two parties named in the outcome are the Parti Québécois and the Coalition Avenir Quebec.

The report gives the form of the government as a minority. It gives the fate of the incumbent party as an electoral wipeout. It does not, in this account, list a seat count. The named winner of government is the Parti Québécois.

No premier was separately sworn in inside this election notice. The notice is the election result. The result is a Parti Québécois minority. The other result is the wipeout description for the Coalition Avenir Quebec.

The recorded political fact is the Quebec election outcome. The incoming government is a minority Parti Québécois government. The outgoing ruling party is the Coalition Avenir Quebec. The chamber is the National Assembly.
