## Resource

In a surprise federal byelection win in Chicoutimi—Le Fjord, Liberals claim victory fueled by the U.S. trade war and local candidate recognition, while PQ leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon downplays the impact, insisting provincial voters aren’t swayed by federal politics. He also pushes back on claims that federal Liberal popularity hurts his party’s chances in Quebec, calling for more respectful federal-provincial trade talks — especially after feeling sidelined in negotiations that hurt Quebec’s economy. With a provincial election looming, the region’s split loyalties and escalating trade tensions are turning this into a high-stakes political chess match.
