All the issues Quebecers want Legault to prioritize instead of the "decline of the French language"

A study by the Angus Reid Institute has examined the issues that Quebecers say are most important to them right now.

The cost of living/inflation (66%), healthcare (63%) and housing affordability (27%) round out the top three issues that Quebecers are most concerned about, followed by the environment/climate change (25%) and education (25%). Just 1 in 5 Quebecers (19%) say protecting the French language is among the most important issues to them.

According to Angus Reid’s Government Performance Index (GPI) — which represents the average number of residents saying their own provincial government is doing a good or very good job across 13 different key issues including inflation, the economy and healthcare — just 1 in 3 Quebecers (33%) approve of the Legault government.

“Premier François Legault endured some attrition this quarter with respect to his own personal approval, and his government, though recently re-elected, faces criticism on each of the three most important issues to Quebecers. On each, at least 64% say the government is doing a poor job currently.”

The Angus Reid Institute conducted an online survey from May 30 – June 3, 2023, among a representative randomized sample of 3,885 Canadian adults who are members of Angus Reid Forum.
