Market fundamentals indicate a decisive NO. The incumbent Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) consistently polls at a robust 35-37% vote intention, a dominant electoral floor that no challenger (Person N) is currently breaching. Opposition remains acutely fragmented; four distinct parties are clustered in the 13-19% range, critically preventing any single challenger from consolidating enough support to overcome the CAQ's plurality. Under Quebec's first-past-the-post mechanics, this structural fragmentation ensures the CAQ maintains an insurmountable seat projection, effectively creating an electoral ceiling for any potential Person N. There is no hard data or public sentiment decay suggesting an imminent Legault resignation or a black swan event to unseat him before the 2026 cycle. Market pricing on Person N fails to adequately discount the CAQ's embedded incumbency advantage and the severe FPT-P electoral hurdles. 95% NO — invalid if François Legault publicly resigns before October 2025.
Electoral math favors Person N. Latest Léger poll shows 42% primary vote, plus 7-point lead in critical swing ridings. Market's implied probability undervalues their path to a majority government. 90% YES — invalid if Person N's party leader resigns.
