The first debate is scheduled on Tuesday evening and will feature all five party leaders.

The PQ is set to unveil the financial framework of its platform during the day on Tuesday.

Both Liberal Leader Charles Milliard and Québec solidaire spokesperson Ruba Ghazal visited Montreal’s Maisonneuve-Rosemont hospital this morning, while Conservative Leader Éric Duhaime spoke about immigration at a press conference in downtown Montreal.

Quebec voters go to the polls Oct. 5.

Sovereignty, affordability and the trade war with the U.S. have been among the top issues so far in the campaign.
