Meanwhile, 61% say they are dissatisfied, including 30% who are <em>very</em> dissatisfied.</p><p>That discontent appears to be translating into a desire for political change. When asked whether the CAQ should remain in power after the next election, 63% of respondents said they would prefer a new government to assume power in 2026.</p><p><span></span>Legault has served as Quebec's premier since 2018, when his Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) party ended nearly 15 years of Liberal rule. A former Parti Québécois MNA and co-founder of Air Transat, Legault launched the CAQ in 2011 with a platform promising a more business-friendly and nationalist approach to provincial politics — without promoting sovereignty. He went on to win a second majority mandate in 2022.</p><p>But the Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue native's personal popularity is also showing signs of wear. Just 21% of respondents say he would make the best premier, compared to 24% who chose Parti Québécois leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon. That puts Legault's party in third place — and down four points from the last survey.</p><p>In terms of voting intentions, the CAQ is now polling at 20% support after nearly seven years in office, trailing behind the PQ at 33% and just behind the Quebec Liberals at 21%.</p><p>On the topic of sovereignty, 32% of Quebecers said they support separating from Canada (up three points from March), while 59% say they would vote against it.</p><p>Barring an early election, Quebecers are scheduled to return to the polls by October 5, 2026</p><p>The survey was conducted online from May 9 to 11, using responses from 1,051 Quebecers.
