Quebec’s Parti Quebecois (PQ) has expressed concerns over the current levels of temporary immigration, suggesting that it might contribute to the rise in housing costs. The party believes that the rapid increase of immigrants could make it difficult for residents to afford housing. Although the PQ has not held power or opposition in the last two elections, its popularity is growing. They have committed to construct 45,000 homes over the next five years if they win in the 2026 elections. This proposal is a response to what they perceive as the Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ)’s inadequate approach to the housing crisis.
