There was no foreign meddling during last Octobers Quebec provincial election, Premier Francois Legault says.

For the second straight election, voter turnout in the Ungava riding of northern Quebec was just above 30 per cent — the lowest in the province by far. Two Indigenous candidates who ran and lost in Ungava are demanding that elections officials do better.

Stories are emerging of Cree voters in the northern Quebec riding of Ungava who were unable to cast their ballots in Quebec's provincial election. "I always vote. We didn't have problems before," said one frustrated woman.

Aaron Ansuini wanted to vote by mail, but was told he had to register in person anyway. So he went down to the polling station to vote instead and had to rely on his partner for help accessing the voting area.

Although advance voting officially got underway this past Monday in Quebec's Ungava riding, hundreds of Kuujjuaq residents have still not received their voter cards due to missing postal information.

Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois is again defending Québec solidaire (QS) initiatives that encouraged young people on campus to change their address, a day after a message from his partys Rimouski candidate.
