Éric Barnabé, who already knows Bas-Saint-Laurent having spent several summers there in the past, arrives in this election with his eyes wide open. “I am already in the debate and I know the issues. I have the knowledge to get the grants and get things done with the existing programs. "

For the Popular Party candidate, his political formation is an interesting option for the citizens of the riding since, according to him, a party like the Bloc Québécois is not interested in federal issues. “Federal infrastructure is the responsibility of a federal elected representative. Or, the Bloc is not interested in it because it does not believe in it. We can look at the wharves that have been abandoned for some 20 years and how difficult it is for the federal government to cede to the provincial level. "

Éric Barnabé is aware that this is a new party, but that it deserves attention. “We are for the freedom of choice, especially with regard to sanitary measures. If people want to get vaccinated, let them do it. But what we see is that we are trying to impose vaccination on everyone, even babies. I joked recently that soon, the goal of François Legault's government will be that 103% of people will be vaccinated. Especially in the region where the pandemic has never been such a big problem as elsewhere. "

In addition, Éric Barnabé believes that the experience of his boss, Maxime Bernier as Minister of State for SMEs has enabled him to make life easier for entrepreneurs who were grappling with a mountain of paperwork. The Beauceron politician's long policy is, according to the PPC candidate, a pledge of credibility for the future, especially on the economic front. “The economic recovery will be difficult. I look at all the shops closed at the Matane shopping center. We are moving towards a major problem. "
