To conclude the activity On the road to the 2022 Quebec elections: public finance issues, the Chair invites a representative of the main political parties in Quebec to a lunchtime discussion so they can present their vision of government objectives and public finances, and the changes to be made in taxation and budget management. They will also be invited to present the fiscal framework underlying their proposals. This will be followed by a question period.
