When Québec solidaire was founded, the total number of members from both the UFP and Option citoyenne came to 4,000. Since that time, party membership has grown appreciably and continues to include and welcome people from a diversity of backgrounds, from regions across the province. Québec solidaire will continue to participate in any forum where the political, economic, social, environmental, and cultural future of Québec is concerned. QS members and candidates are equally committed to promoting the party’s principles in their workplaces, their social movements, and their communities.
More and more Québecers who are becoming increasingly concerned about irresponsible business practices, ineffectual, dangerous environmental policies, and government initiatives that have deepened the divide between rich and poor are discovering Québec solidaire. Québec solidaire believes in electing the government we truly deserve. A responsible government that will have the courage to implement green, carefully budgeted, progressive change. A government that will build a better Québec for everyone.
