Quebec City

Quebec City, the capital of the province of Quebec, Canada, is currently newsworthy due to a confluence of political and social events. The anniversary of the Quebec City mosque attack, a tragic event that occurred nine years prior, has renewed calls to end anti-Muslim hate and address divisive rhetoric. Simultaneously, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has been using Quebec City as a platform to respond to comments made by the U.S. President and to emphasize Canada's role as a global leader. He delivered a national address from a historic military fortress in the city. Furthermore, the recent resignation of Quebec Premier François Legault, announced at a press conference in Quebec City, adds to the current political upheaval. Legault's departure, driven by declining popularity and the prospect of electoral losses, marks a significant shift in Quebec's political landscape, making Quebec City a focal point of Canadian national news.
