He said the new Bloc MPs will evaluate each piece of legislation on a case-by-case basis, voting in favour of those that are good for Quebec. Blanchet said he doesn’t believe voters want to see a minority Parliament fall, and it up to the Liberals to find a way to complete their mandate.

He said one of his first priorities, when Parliament resumes, will be making sure the government fulfils its promise to compensate agricultural producers affected by trade deals.
