SHAWINIGAN | François Legault is a ” danger to the public services and education “, a “charlatan” who no longer knows how to count, plague Jean-François Lisée, who reviled the reductions in school taxes promised by the CAQ.

At a time when the Coalition avenir Québec throne in voting intentions, according to the most recent opinion polls, it is against François Legault Mr. Lisée has done the hard part, Wednesday, in the margins of the meeting of its deputies in Shawinigan.

Recall that Mr. Legault took advantage of his caucus présessionnel which took place in the Laurentians, in the beginning of the week, to commit to reduce school taxes of$ 1.37 billion, which represents a decrease of tax burden additional of$ 700 Million compared to the reduction of 670 M$ already proposed by the liberals.

On one side, or the other, it is an approach ” irresponsible “, according to Mr. Lisée.

“This is irresponsible, that is to say, as the liberals and the CAQ, that one wants to reduce a$ 1.4 billion income of the State, and that it will have no impact on services. […] Those who say it are charlatans. “

Mr. Lisée accused Mr. Legault of being unable to explain how a government of the CAQ would fund this additional drop of$ 700 Million, since the surplus announced by the liberals are already committed to other expenses.

“It means that Mr. Legault said I’m going to cut$ 700 Million in education to finance reductions in taxes, believes the head of the parti québecois. […] The austerity permanent, this is what the CAQ proposes. “

“It doesn’t work,” said Couillard

For his part, the prime minister Philippe Couillard says the extent of the CAQ will ” do anything for the success of children “.

“Mr. Legault has announced, these are cuts of $ 700 million, said the prime minister, from China where he is leading an economic mission. We don’t have anything cut in education; it has risen less quickly than people would have wanted, but nothing was cut. Him, he announced cuts of $ 700 million in education. “

“At the same time, he said he wants to expand the kindergarten 4 years, first in four years for all children in Quebec, said Philippe Couillard. It doesn’t work. “

“He became very extravagant, mr. Legault. While he was entering politics for the rigour of public finance, it does not seem to go in the direction that he announced at the beginning, ” he recalled, referring to the creation of the CAQ.
