Since the very beginning, Québec Solidaire has polled below CAQ, PCQ, and PLQ but the recent poll by EKOS gave QS over 20% vote share and predicted it to emerge as the main opposition party. The reason behind the rise of QS is the downfall of Liberals who have not been able to provide a better opposition leader against Francois Legault.
The poll shows that the QS spokesperson Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois is highly popular. The majority of Quebecers want to see him as an opposition leader as they believe he would make a good opposition leader.
