Voters will head to the polls in Québec on October 5, 2026.
In the previous provincial election in 2022, 59 women and gender-diverse MNAs were elected in Québec, with a total of 47% of elected MNAs being women. Equal Voice is advocating for gender parity – that means at least 50% of nominated candidates and at least 50% of elected MNAs being women or gender-diverse people. The results in 2022 were exciting, being so close to gender parity in the legislature. We hope to see women and gender-diverse people equally well-represented after the 2026 election.
