The Liberal Party has faced various opposing parties in its history. Its main opposition from the time of Confederation (1867) to the 1930s was the Quebec Conservative Party. The 1930s were described as an abrupt shift to more radical and conservative lifestyles as countries were struggling to find a solution to the Great Depression. The Parti conservateur du Québec (in English: Conservative Party of Quebec) was a political party in Quebec, Canada.

In 1955, the PLQ severed its affiliation with the Liberal Party of Canada, and, at times since then, relations between the two parties have been strained.
Post-1960
Under Jean Lesage, the party won an historic election in 1960, ending sixteen years of rule by the conservative Union Nationale. Jean Lesage, PC, CC, CD ( June 10, 1912 &ndash December 12, 1980) was a lawyer and politician in Quebec The Quebec general election of 1960 was held on June 22, 1960 to elect members of the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Quebec, Canada This marked the beginning of the Quiet Revolution, which dramatically changed Quebec society. The Quiet Revolution ( Révolution tranquille) was the 1960s period of intense change in Quebec, Canada, characterized by the rapid and effective Secularization Under the slogan maîtres chez nous (masters in our own house), the Quebec government undertook several major initiatives, including:
- full nationalization of the electricity industry through expansion of the government-owned Hydro-Québec — this major initiative of the government was led by the minister of natural resources, René Lévesque;
- creation of a public pension plan, the Quebec Pension Plan, separate from the Canada Pension Plan that exists in all other provinces of Canada;
- creation of a Ministry of Education, taking responsibility for the schools away from the Roman Catholic Church;
- pressuring the federal government of Canada to renegotiate federal-provincial relations. Nationalization, also spelled nationalisation, is the act of taking an industry or assets into the Public ownership of a national government Hydro-Québec is a Crown corporation that provides electricity to Quebec, Canada and the north-eastern parts of the United States The Canada Pension Plan ( CPP) is a contributory earnings-related Social insurance program
Under Lesage, the Liberals developed a Quebec nationalist wing. Quebec nationalism is a contemporary nationalist movement in Canada similar to what is found in other multi-ethnic and multi-lingual regions of the world Some Liberals, including senior Cabinet minister René Lévesque, left the Liberals to join the sovereignty movement, participating in the founding of the Parti Québécois under Lévesque's leadership. A cabinet is a body of high-ranking members of Government, typically representing the executive branch.

Relations soured between the Quebec Liberal Party and the federal Liberal Party of Canada under Lesage, and particularly under Robert Bourassa. The Liberal Party of Canada ( Parti libéral du Canada) colloquially known as the Grits (originally " Clear Grits " is a major Canadian political Robert Bourassa GOQ ( July 14, 1933 &ndash October 2, 1996) was a politician in Quebec, Canada
First elected in 1970, Robert Bourassa instituted Bill 22 to introduce French language as the official language in Quebec, and pushed Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau for constitutional concessions.

The Quebec general election of 1973 was held on October 29, 1973 to elect members to National Assembly of the Province of Quebec, Canada Bourassa resigned from the party's leadership after the loss of the 1976 election to René Lévesque's Parti Québécois. The Quebec general election of 1976 was held on November 15, 1976 to elect members to National Assembly of the Province of Quebec,
Bourassa was succeeded as Liberal leader by Claude Ryan, the former director of the respected Montreal newspaper, Le Devoir. Claude Ryan, CC ( January 26, 1925 &ndash February 9, 2004) was a Le Devoir is a French-language Newspaper published in Montreal and distributed in Quebec and the rest of Canada. Ryan led the successful federalist campaign in the 1980 Quebec referendum on Quebec sovereignty, but then lost the 1981 election.

When Bourassa returned as Premier in 1985, he successfully persuaded the federal Progressive Conservative government of Brian Mulroney to recognize Quebec as a distinct society, and sought greater powers for Quebec and the other provinces. The Quebec general election of 1985 was held on December 2, 1985, to elect members of the National Assembly of the Province of Quebec, Canada The Progressive Conservative Party of Canada ( PC) ( Parti progressiste-conservateur du Canada) ( 1867 – 2003) was a Canadian Martin Brian Mulroney PC CC GOQ (predominantly known as Brian Mulroney) (born March 20, 1939) was the eighteenth Distinct society (in French la société distincte) is a political expression especially used during a Constitutional debate in Canada, in the second half This resulted in the Meech Lake and Charlottetown constitutional accords. The Meech Lake Accord was a set of failed amendments to the Constitution of Canada negotiated in 1987 by Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and the provincial The Charlottetown Accord was a package of constitutional amendments proposed by the Canadian federal and provincial governments in 1992. Both of these proposals, however, were not ratified. While a Quebec nationalist, Bourassa remained an opponent of independence for Quebec. Quebec nationalism is a contemporary nationalist movement in Canada similar to what is found in other multi-ethnic and multi-lingual regions of the world
Daniel Johnson, Jr. succeeded Bourassa as Liberal leader and Premier of Quebec in 1994, but soon lost the 1994 election to the Parti Québécois under Jacques Parizeau.

In 1993, after the failure of the Charlottetown Accord, many nationalist members of the Liberal party led by Jean Allaire and Mario Dumont, including many from the party's youth wing, left to form the Action démocratique du Québec because of the Liberal party's dropping of most of its autonomist demands during the negotiation of the Charlottetown Accord. Jean Allaire (born 1930 was the author of the Allaire Report, and subsequently in 1994 the first leader of the fiscally conservative autonomist provincial level political Mario Dumont (born May 19 1970 in Saint-Georges-de-Cacouna Quebec) is a politician in the province of Quebec, Canada.

Since the election of April 14, 2003, the Liberals have formed the current government of Quebec under Premier Jean Charest.

Martin Brian Mulroney PC CC GOQ (predominantly known as Brian Mulroney) (born March 20, 1939) was the eighteenth The current Liberal government has proposed a policy of reform of social programs and cuts to government spending and the civil service similar to those of recent Progressive Conservative governments in Ontario and Alberta and Liberal government in British Columbia.

Midway through its prior mandate, polls indicated the Charest government had been riding on the highest dissatisfaction rates ever recorded for a government in place in Quebec. John James Charest PC MNA (known as Jean Charest) ʒɑ̃ ʃɑʀe (born June 24, 1958) is a Canadian Highly controversial proposals to reform education, labour and social policy, stalled attempts to "streamline" the provincial civil service, growing labour unrest, and other factors gave the Parti Québécois a chance to win the Quebec general election, 2007. The Quebec general election of 2007 was held in the Canadian province of Quebec on March 26, 2007 to elect members of the The Liberals, however, did win the election, although in a minority position, losing francophone ballots to the Action démocratique du Québec. The Action démocratique du Québec (ADQ is a conservative, nationalist and autonomist provincial Political party in Quebec [1]
Charest, in his speech at the beginning of the most recent legislative assembly in May, criticized newcomers on their responsibility to Quebec and indicated francophones want preservation against minority groups. To firm up party support, Charest empowered a task force which asked for more policies to strengthen build the French language and nationalism. But party delegates were as a majority dismissive of it, calling it not sufficiently federalist. Minorities, usually unconditionally federalist, were upset that Quebecers are being split between "us" and "them. "[2]
The party includes among its members supporters of the federal Liberals, federal Conservatives, and some supporters of the federal New Democratic Party. The Conservative Party of Canada ( Parti conservateur du Canada) colloquially known as the " Tories " is a conservative Principles policies and electoral achievement The NDP grew from populist, agrarian and democratic socialist roots In terms of voter support, it has always been able to rely on the great majority of non-francophones.
