Quebec

The RCMP say a terror suspect arrested in Montreal was living in Canada illegally at the time of the arrest. The arrest in Quebec's largest city has drawn attention to border enforcement and how the individual entered and remained in the country. Details about the suspect's identity, the alleged plot or any charges have not been widely reported, and authorities are expected to provide more information as the investigation proceeds.

Quebecers are looking ahead to the province's 2026 general election, scheduled for October 5. Local coverage reports that preparations are complete in cities such as Rimouski, while analysts highlight 16 key races to watch across the province. Interest in advance voting options for the 2026 ballot is growing as the campaign takes shape.

Searches and discussion about Quebec's 2026 provincial election are rising in Canada. The vote, expected on or before October 2026, will decide whether the Coalition Avenir Québec retains power or opposition parties led by the Liberals, Québec solidaire or the Parti Québécois take over. Quebecers are starting to look ahead to platforms, candidates and campaign timing.
