My ideas
I've always believed in Quebec's immense potential. We are a proud nation, rich in talent, resources and culture. Today, we face challenges that require more than simply managing the present: they demand a bold vision for the future. My conviction is clear. Quebec deserves better, and Quebecers deserve better. Better than temporary solutions and empty promises. Better than a government that chooses to manage from day to day without bothering to prepare for the future.
The leadership race is a unique opportunity to redefine the Quebec Liberal Party and provide it with leadership that reflects the aspirations of Quebecers in every region of Quebec. With professional experience, expertise in health and the economy, and intergenerational solidarity behind me, I am convinced that I am the candidate best equipped to embody this renewal and lead our party to victory in 2026.
The Quebec Liberal Party is at a crossroads. In the wake of recent election results, the Party must not only rebuild itself, but also transform itself to meet the expectations of Quebecers. They are looking for a new political offering that reflects their aspirations and their vision of the future. I'm convinced that I'm the candidate for change, the one who can embody this renewal and our Liberal values to make the QLP a winning party in 2026.
My approach is simple: listen, unite, transform. Together, we can make the QLP a modern, bold and inspiring party. Quebecers are ready for change, and that change starts with us. With your support, let's make 2026 the year the Quebec Liberal Party returns to victory.
To get there, I'm proposing a new path forward. A path where we build a strong, fair, greener and more prosperous Quebec for you, for your families, for your parents, for young people and for generations to come. A path where the economy becomes the main instrument of our collective success, where the regions are finally recognized for their differences and their crucial role, where our public services once again live up to your expectations, and where our language and culture shine like never before. I want to achieve this vision with you, based on concrete proposals that will give Quebec the means to achieve its ambitions.
My action priorities
A strong economy: the key to our prosperity
Drawing on his in-depth knowledge of the regional economy and realities, Charles is proposing an ambitious strategy to build a sustainable and competitive economy. He wants to modernise our primary sector to meet today's challenges, increase its productivity and competitiveness on the world stage while creating jobs here. It is committed to supporting SMEs, the engines of our economic fabric, by promoting innovation and entrepreneurship. By focusing on responsible and sustainable practices, Quebec will be able to create quality jobs, revitalise its regions and become a world leader in sustainability and innovation.
My proposals to date:
(2025-12-03) Charles Milliard proposes a return to balanced budgets and tax cuts for SMEs
(2024-12-03) Defending Quebec's Regions and Economy - Charles Milliard
(2024-09-24) It's time to talk about SMEs - Charles Milliard
Finally Responding to the Aspirations of the Regions
Our regions are the beating heart of Quebec and deserve solutions tailored to their unique realities. The one-size-fits-all approach has too often hindered their development. Charles proposes an agile state, capable of listening to and addressing the specific needs of each community across the territory. Modernising infrastructure, revitalising town centres, and encouraging local economic vitality is how we build a Quebec where every region can fully thrive. Let us make our regions a source of pride and growth.
My proposals to date:

(2025-13-02) Charles Milliard promises better sharing of mining royalties
(2024-11-25) Charles Milliard promises wage parity in healthcare with Ontario
(2024-10-28) Charles Milliard commits to including the Bas-Saint-Laurent region among the territories eligible for an increase in fuel tax to benefit the Bas-Saint-Laurent Transport Authority, while fully respecting the autonomy of local stakeholders in managing the funds collected.
Modern and Accessible Public Services
Our public services must reflect our values and meet the needs of everyone across Quebec. While more than 50% of the budget is allocated to healthcare, Quebecers are not getting value for money: access remains a challenge. As a pharmacist, Charles proposes bold measures to ensure accessible, equitable, and prevention-focused care. He also believes that education, the most powerful social elevator, must prepare our youth for the challenges of a constantly evolving world. Modern services for a strong and fair Quebec.
My proposals to date:
(2025-16-02) Charles Milliard proposes minimum wage for internship students
(2024-10-28) - General assemblies to rethink our education system together
(2024-10-21) - Charles Milliard calls for a professional Order of teachers
A Strongly Asserted Quebec Identity
Quebec, with its rich language and culture, must stand tall, proud, and bold. Charles is committed to protecting French, not just as a tool for communication but as a cornerstone of our nation. By valuing our heritage and restoring Quebecois culture to its central place, he aims to build a Quebec where every citizen proudly embraces their identity. Together, let us strengthen our uniqueness and showcase our heritage both here and around the world. A strong, united nation focused on the future.
(2025-03-01) Charles Milliard wants a Quebec government that isn't focused on what he sees as divisive rhetoric
A PLQ Ready to win the 2026 Elections
The Parti libéral du Québec must not only adapt but also transform its organizational culture to reflect modern realities. Under Charles's leadership, party offices will become competitive and attractive workplaces, aligned with 21st-century standards. This will create an environment that values its employees and prioritizes positive, high-quality service for members. Every dollar from members and donors will be optimized through clear action plans, rigorous management, and enhanced accountability. Political activism will no longer be a chore or a financial burden but a valued and accessible commitment. With Charles, we will build an agile, visionary PLQ focused on tangible results, inspiring a new generation of activists and mobilizing Quebecers for 2026.
My proposals to date:
(2024-11-10) Liberal leadership hopeful Charles Milliard aims to run in Orford.
(2024-08-10) Parti libéral du Québec: Charles Milliard commits to a 10-year plan.
