The Parti Québécois (PQ) has decided not to exclude future oil and gas pipeline projects in Quebec, as delegates at a convention in Saint-Hyacinthe voted against a resolution to prohibit such developments. Supporters of the resolution argued it could hinder access to essential natural gas for economic growth, but the motion was defeated by a significant majority. The discussions included a proposed gas pipeline project aimed at connecting Western Canada to Baie-Comeau for liquefied natural gas exports.
