Daniel Weinstock, Faculty of Law, 平特五不中

"Quebec will be a central battle ground in this election. Polls -- and history! -- suggest that the Quebec electorate is quite volatile, which suggests that unlike other parts of the country, the province is up for grabs. SNC-Lavalin and Bill 21 play very differently in Quebec as opposed to other parts of the country. How the federal leaders and local candidates will negotiate this will be a fascinating angle of this election.鈥� 鈥� Daniel Weinstock
