Three influential members of the Parti Quebecois have abruptly quit the sovereigntist party, saying it has lost its way.
Lisette Lapointe, Pierre Curzi and Louise Beaudoin all say they’ll sit as independents and continue to fight for sovereignty.
Lapointe is the wife of Jacques Parizeau, who is beloved by the party’s militant grassroots.
All three say the party has become obsessed with gaining power and the situation has become unbearable.
