Armenian National Committee of Quebec Weighs in on Quebec 2007 Elections
Montreal, Qc_ The Armenian National Committee of Quebec (ANCQ) over
the last four weeks has actively been involved in the Quebec 2007
general elections. Committee members have met with and discussed
issues of our community with candidates of all the major parties.
The committee has agreed to support certain candidates and to assist
these candidates through its participation in the campaign processes.
The ANCQ has always supported individual candidates and not political
parties to best serve the needs of our community.
The ANCQ was proud of the passage of C-194 in the National Assembly of
Quebec during the previous mandate of government. When meeting with
the candidates, the ANCQ discussed issues such as the inclusion of
genocides in the educational curriculum, the development of youth
programs within our community and the inclusion of our community in
higher levels of government, among many others.
On election day, ANCQ's supported candidates were all victorious in
their ridings. Christine St.Pierre (Liberal, Acadie), Jacques Dupuis
(Liberal, St.Laurent), Louise Harel (PQ, Hochelaga-Maissoneuve),
Michelle Courchesne (Liberal, Fabre), Guy Ouellette (Liberal,
Chomedey) and Alain Paquet (Liberal, Laval des Rapides).
The ANCQ looks forward to working with the new National Assembly of
Quebec. We are optimistic with the outlook of the future and have
great confidence in pursuing the needs of our community through
vigilant action.
