**Shift in Perceived Threats: From the Parti Québécois to Alberta**
A recent commentary published by *L’Actualité* examines the changing sources of political anxiety within Canada. The piece notes that, in earlier periods, opinion polls showing strong support for the Parti Québécois (PQ) were perceived as unsettling by many across the country. According to the article, “the favorable polls for the Parti Québécois used to make Canada shiver,” reflecting concerns about the party’s sovereigntist agenda.
The current analysis, however, suggests that the PQ no longer occupies that position of apprehension. Instead, the author’s collaborator argues that “the fear is now being generated by Alberta.” No further details or data are provided in the brief excerpt to explain the nature of the perceived threat emanating from the western province.
The commentary does not present new polling figures, statements from political figures, or empirical evidence to substantiate the claim regarding Alberta. It serves primarily as an editorial observation on the evolving dynamics of regional political concerns in Canada.
