The Quebec Liberal Party (PLQ) is a provincial political party that has historically alternated in power with the Parti Québécois. The Liberals are federalist, opposing Quebec sovereignty and supporting Canadian unity. The party draws significant support from anglophone and allophone (non-English, non-French speaking) communities, though it has also attracted francophone voters. After governing from 2003-2018 under premiers Jean Charest and Philippe Couillard, the Liberals have been in opposition since 2018, losing official opposition status to the Parti Québécois in 2022. The provincial Liberals are a separate party from the federal Liberal Party of Canada, though they share a federalist orientation.
