Coalition Avenir Quebec and Pauline Marois

Pauline Marois: You have a duty to answer clearly: Yes or no, will you call a referendum in the next mandate? The question to Pauline Marois posed by Fran ois Legault, leader of the Coalition Avenir Quebec, was the sharpest moment of the debate. The question has defined the first half of the election campaign.
