Share

Parti Québécois (PQ) leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon, will make a stop in the Magdalen Islands, a region devastated by the post-tropical storm Fiona.

He made the announcement Sunday during a visit to the riding of Joliette, in Quebec's Lanaudière region.

The leader plans to make a stop in the morning on Monday but will end his day in Montreal for a local debate. Coalition Avenir Quebec (CAQ) leader and incumbent premier François Legault is expected to be in the Islands the same day.

It's a tight race in the Magdalen Islands riding, with the CAQ and PQ polling head-to-head. The incumbent PQ member Joël Arseneau is running to keep his seat.
