2026 Election: healthcare must be a central focus in debates

17 June 2026

On October 5, 2026, Quebeckers will be called to the polls to elect the next government. This democratic event will directly influence the future of the public health network, the working conditions of healthcare professionals, as well as the network’s ability to meet the population’s needs.

The choices that elected officials make have real impacts on your daily lives: organization of work, care access, use of the private sector, work overload management or the implementation of safe ratios. Decisions made in the National Assembly have a direct impact on your professional practice.

Following the campaign differently

As the campaign draws nearer, the FIQ is gathering all the information and tools in one place to help you follow the debates and better understand the different parties’ healthcare proposals.

Throughout the entire election campaign, this page will be updated to give you a clearer read on the issues.

On the page you will find:

  • The major healthcare issues to watch for during the campaign;
  • Tools to help your reflections and discussions.

Because when it comes time to vote, it is vital that you understand the impact of the proposals on your work, on the public network and on the population.

Because political choices have real consequences

You know the public network’s challenges better than anyone else. Your expertise is key to reminding us that, beyond mere rhetoric, the decisions made today will have a tangible impact on the care we provide in the future.

As election day approaches, let’s make healthcare a key issue in the public debate.

Healthcare. Our priority. Our voice.
