Toronto, June 14th, 2019 – In a random

were held today.
Respondents most likely to say they would vote for CAQ

$100,000 to $250,000 (55%), the most wealthy (58%), and those living in Quebec

"The majority of Quebecers approve of the job Francois Legault is doing as premier,' said Dr. Lorne Bozinoff, President of Forum Research. "It'll be tough for Pierre Arcand to gain traction when half of Quebecers aren't aware of the job he's doing now."
