The Canadian Party of Quebec (CaPQ) is set to hold an event titled “Staying Canadian” at the Stanstead Legion Branch #005 on Nov. 24, from 2 to 4 p.m. Hosted at 15 Rue Maple, the event aims to provide a platform for discussing the party’s vision and plans regarding Canadian unity and Quebec’s future. Organizers hope to encourage community engagement and dialogue.
Tara Robertson, who initiated the event, emphasized her independent role in bringing the CaPQ to Stanstead. “I’m not part of the party; I just wanted them to come here and share what they’re about,” she explained in a recent short interview.
Her interest in the party grew after attending earlier events in Montreal and Bromont this year. “I liked their presentation and what they stand for, particularly their agenda on staying Canadian,” Robertson said. She voiced concerns about Quebec’s political future, referencing the Parti Québécois’s push for another referendum on sovereignty. “This is the only party addressing it before a referendum and holding the federal government accountable for protecting us as Canadians,” she added.
Robertson encourages local residents to take advantage of the opportunity to engage with the party’s representatives in person. “They have a real interesting agenda. I highly recommend you come, have a listen, and ask all the questions you want,” she urged.
With a focus on in-person attendance, the event promises to be an engaging discussion about the province’s future and its place in Canada. For more information, contact info@particanadienquebec.ca or visit www.canadianpartyquebec.ca.
