Noam Chomsky recorded a video message honouring Quebec Solidaire on the political party's tenth anniversary.
"It's a breath of fresh air in the grim neoliberal era which has brought such grief and despair and often unfocused anger to so many people who have been cast by the wayside as the neoliberal policies are designed to enrich and empower very narrow sectors of wealth and power," said Chomsky.
The retired linguistics professor and political activist congratulated QS for its accomplishments over the past decade.
Over the weekend the political party discussed how to better connect with Quebecers, and how it can woo federalists and anglophones to its cause.
The annual convention was also an opportunity for members to reiterate their support for workers' rights, environmental issues, and the redistribution of wealth.
There are three Quebec Solidaire MNAs in the National Assembly: Francoise David, Amir Khadir and Manon Massé.
