Farmers, conservationists, and rural communities are rallying against what they call a land grab, echoing past controversies like Mirabel airport. Political factions including the Conservatives and Bloc Québécois are raising alarms over transparency and cost, while the Parti Québécois threatens to kill Quebec’s portion of the project if they win October’s election — making the province’s support essential. This isn’t just infrastructure; it’s a battle over land rights, community futures, and political accountability. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
