En route to the 2018 general election

Outremont, June 18, 2018 – This evening, Pierre Arcand was nominated as the official candidate for the Quebec Liberal Party in the riding of Mont-Royal–Outremont for the upcoming 2018 general election. Many members were present for the occasion as well as ministers Gaétan Barrette, Hélène David, Carlos Leitão and Kathleen Weil.

I am very happy to commit to a fifth term as an MNA. I want to represent the residents of the new riding of Mont-Royal–Outremont at the National Assembly with the same focus: improving the quality of life of the people I represent. Our government is carrying out many major projects, including the expansion of the Jewish General Hospital, the development of the Université de Montréal Science Complex, the modernization of CHU Sainte-Justine, the deployment of super-clinics and the renovation of five schools in Town of Mont-Royal, for which construction will start this summer.

Pierre Arcand, Liberal candidate for the 2018 general election.

These investments that we’re making today are the fruit of our government’s sound management of public finances. We did away with the deficit and rebalanced the budget in a sustainable way. On March 27, Carlos Leitão submitted a fourth consecutive balanced budget, which explains the flexibility we now enjoy. This is the best our economy has performed in 20 years. More than 229,500 jobs have been created since May 2014.

Pierre Arcand, Liberal candidate for the 2018 general election.

The unemployment rate has been at an all-time low for several months; over 1,000,000 Quebecers now have access to a family doctor; taxes have decreased; and major investments have been made, particularly in health and education.
