After week of backtracking, PQ’s Marois clarifies conservative gaffe - The Globe and Mail

After telling conservative sovereigntists they should vote elsewhere if they can’t accept the Parti Québécois’s progressive platform, party Leader Pauline Marois moved quickly to defuse a potentially explosive situation.
The PQ has always been an alliance of social-democratic and right-wing sovereigntists. Ms. Marois’s comment suggested that for the first time, a PQ party leader was telling part of that coalition to get lost.
