  Quebec’s October 5, 2026, provincial election has brought major immigration policy changes into focus after the Parti Québécois (PQ), led by Paul St-Pierre Plamondon, secured 59 of the 127 seats in the National Assembly and formed a minority government.

The latest selection brings the total number of invitations issued by the province to 1,319 across ten draws in 2026.
