Eric Duhaime, leader of the Conservative Party of Quebec (PCQ), continued to pressure Eric Carey to resign. He spent Saturday in the constituency of La Peltrie, represented in the National Assembly by Eric Carre, where he invited citizens to sign his petition.
Eric Duhaime went door to door with about forty volunteers. While Radio-Canada was there, most of the people he met signed a petition calling for his own MP to resign.
A few months before the 2018 provincial election campaign, Eric Cair put his seat on the line if a third motorway link was not built. Despite this commitment, Eric Cair decided to remain in office when the government announced the abandonment of this part of the project, causing discontent in his constituency.

We will try to strategize to ensure that every citizen is reached. There will be a flyer at every citizen’s door to encourage them to sign virtually or in person
assure Eric Duhaime.
In the last provincial election, 61,000 people were registered on the voters’ list for the riding of La Peltrie. Eric Duhaime has set a goal of 19,000 signatures.

Before starting this offensive, according to the Conservative leader 9,000 people from La Peltrie had signed the petition, but the aim is more ambitious.
, The first objective is to collect 19,000 signatures, as this is the number of votes Mr. Coward received in the election. From the moment we have more signatures than the people who voted for him, I think psychologically it will be our first victory. ,
Eric Cair’s cabinet responded to Radio-Canada that the minister had no intention of commenting on the Conservative leader’s initiative.
A few days ago, Éric Carré indicated that he had received threats since abandoning the highway component of the third link between Quebec and Lévis.
