在2018年和2022年省选中赢得压倒性多数政府后，魁北克未来联盟（CAQ）如今既无席位也无领袖，引发了人们对该党未来及其作为政治实体的可行性的质疑。
After securing dominant majority governments in the 2018 and 2022 provincial elections, the Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) is now both without a seat and without a leader, raising questions about the party's future and viability as a political entity.
克里斯蒂娜·弗雷舍特上周二辞去了党魁职务，就在选举日的第二天。
Christine Fréchette resigned as party leader last Tuesday, the day after the election.
该党成立于2011年，初衷是成为主权主义和联邦主义的第三种选择，但在本次选举中，尽管获得了超过57.2万票，却在国民议会中一席未得，彻底从政治版图上消失。魁北克党在127个席位中赢得59席，将组建少数政府。那么，CAQ接下来会怎样？
The CAQ, which was founded in 2011 with the goal of being a third alternative to sovereignty and federalism, was wiped off the political map, failing to pick up a single seat in the National Assembly despite receiving a little more than 572,000 votes. The Parti Québécois, with 59 out of 127 seats, will form a minority government. So what's next for the CAQ?
以下是该党在试图从这次毁灭性选举失利中重新站起来时的现状概览。谁将成为下一任领袖？在弗雷舍特离职后，CAQ的下一步是任命一名临时领袖。
Here's a snapshot of where things stand as the party tries to pick up the pieces after a devastating election defeat. Who is the next leader? Following Fréchette's exit, the CAQ's next step is to appoint an interim leader.
在接受加拿大广播公司（Radio-Canada）采访时，CAQ执行董事布丽吉特·勒戈（与党的联合创始人兼前省长弗朗索瓦·勒戈无亲属关系）表示，该党执行委员会将于10月17日任命一名临时领袖。
In an interview with Radio-Canada's , the CAQ's executive director Brigitte Legault (not related to party co-founder and former premier François Legault) said the party's executive board will appoint someone on Oct. 17.
勒戈说，该临时领袖的任务是组织党的下一次领袖选举。目前尚未确定该选举的时间表。
That person will be tasked, Legault says, with organizing the party's next leadership race. There is currently no timeline for that race.
勒戈未点名表示，许多党员对成为下一任领袖、承担复兴CAQ的任务感兴趣。她说：“许多人都举手表示意愿，左左右右。”
Without naming names, Legault said there are many party members who are interested in becoming the next leader and taking on the task of reviving the CAQ. "Many people are raising their hands left and right," she said.
她补充道：“我们面前有一个挑战。过去曾当选的许多人实际上都想卷起袖子干一场。”
"We have a challenge ahead of us. There are certain people who have been elected in the past, many of them actually, that want to roll up their sleeves."
魁北克东部城镇里奇蒙选区的律师、CAQ候选人吉卢姆·卢梭告诉加拿大广播公司，他对参选党魁持开放态度。卢梭在里奇蒙选区排名第四。
Guillaume Rousseau, a lawyer and a CAQ candidate in this past election, told Radio-Canada he is keeping an open mind about running for the party leadership. Rousseau finished fourth in Richmond, a riding in the Eastern Townships.
魁北克PQ的胜利为何重新引发选举制度改革呼声 10月8日 时长 与另一政党合并？
Why the PQ’s victory is reviving calls for electoral reform in Quebec October 8 Duration Merger with another party?
CAQ的惨败引发了人们对该党是否将仅仅停止存在 — — 或与另一政党合并的质疑。但勒戈尔表示这种讨论为时尚早。
The CAQ's colossal defeat raised questions about whether the party would simply cease to exist — or merge with another. But Legault says that kind of talk is premature.
当被问及该党是否正在考虑合并，特别是与魁北克保守党合并时，勒戈尔说：“完全没有。”“我们是一个执政八年的品牌，我认为值得尝试重新启动一切。” 分析 CAQ疲惫是主权派PQ历史性胜利的关键，政府脆弱 最终，此类决定将由党员做出，她说，但她补充说，根据她目前所听到的情况，合并目前不在考虑范围内。
When asked if the party is considering a merger, specifically with the Conservative Party of Quebec, Legault said: "Not at all." "We're a brand that has been in government for eight years and I think it's worth to try and relaunch everything." ANALYSIS CAQ fatigue key to sovereignist PQ's historic victory, fragile government Ultimately, such decisions would be up to party members, she said, but added that based on what she's heard so far, a merger is not in the cards.
“他们相信这条第三条道路[在联邦主义和主权之间]，他们相信我们在经济与民族主义之间所取得的平衡，”勒戈尔说。“我们只需要重新激发灵感、重新创造并找回创造力。” 伊恩·拉弗雷尼埃是众多在选举之夜落选的长期CAQ部长之一，他说该党需要花点时间反思如何“重新与公民建立联系”。“有13%的人投了我们一票，所以虽然票数很多但没有候选人当选，我认为这个选项仍然可行，”拉弗雷尼埃说。
"They believe in this third path [between federalism and sovereignty], they believe in this balance that we struck between the economy and nationalism," Legault said. "We just need to re-inspire, recreate and find our creativity." Ian Lafrenière, one of many longtime CAQ ministers who were defeated on election night, said the party needs to take a moment to reflect on how it can "reconnect with citizens." "Thirteen per cent of people voted for us so there were lots of votes but no candidates were elected, so I think the option is still viable," Lafrenière said.
超过50万票仍然具有意义 如果CAQ确实试图重建自身，他们的财务状况尚不明确，但看来他们将拥有一定的财务支撑。
Over half a million votes still count for something If the CAQ does try to rebuild itself, their financial picture isn't clear but it appears it will have some financial backbone.
根据魁北克选举法，每个获准的政党根据其在最近一次大选中的得票份额获得年度补贴。待分配给各政党的总额相当于每位选民1.99加元（共640万选民）。
In Quebec electoral law, each authorized political party receives an annual allowance based on its share of the vote in the latest general election. The total pot to be divided between the parties is equivalent to $1.99 for eached voter (6.4 million).
对于CAQ而言，这相当于每年约170万加元 — — 即使他们在国民议会中没有一席之地。克里斯汀·弗雷舍特是否被迫从政治“玻璃悬崖”上跌落？
For the CAQ, that is an estimated $1.7 million annually — even if it has no one at the National Assembly. Was Christine Fréchette forced off a political 'glass cliff'?
魁北克《选举法》还规定，获得至少1%选票的政党可获报销其竞选开支的50%。如果当选或获得15%选票，候选人也可获得其个人竞选开支50%的报销。
Quebec's Election Act also calls for parties who receive at least one per cent of the vote to get a reimbursement of 50 per cent of their campaign expenses. Candidates can also receive a reimbursement of 50 per cent of their individual campaign expenses if they were elected or received 15 per cent of the vote.
勒古表示，魁人党在许多选区未能达到这一15%的门槛，但补充说该党也存了一些钱以应对选举后的事务。
Legault says the CAQ failed to meet that 15-per-cent threshold in many ridings, but adds that the party also saved some money to prepare for the election's aftermath.
“我们有员工，我们有政党，我们有党员，我们有活动要策划，”勒古说。“我们将与新领袖商议如何推进。”
"We have employees, we have a party, we have members, we have activites to plan," Legault said. "We'll see with the new leader how we will proceed."
