Philippe Couillard, the Premier of Quebec and Leader of the provincial Liberal party was in Sherbrooke on Tuesday morning meeting with the owners of Rigolo and Gymini, two local businesses that provide indoor playgrounds for the region’s young children. With just under one week to go before the final day of voting, the party leader used the opportunity to reflect on the accomplishments and promises made to date, both during this fall’s campaign and over the previous four years, with a particular attention being placed on support for families.
“Because we are the government of the economy, we can be the government of quality of life,” Couillard said, claiming that his party has introduced a range of “concrete and realistic measures” to support Quebecers including the new first-time homehowners’ tax credit and a commitment to cap hospital parking at $7 a day.
