Will Daniel Gobeil win the 2026 Chicoutimi—Le Fjord by-election?

The tight contest in the Chicoutimi—Le Fjord federal by-election, set for August 31, 2026, centers on Bloc Québécois candidate Caroline Dubé and Liberal Daniel Gobeil, with trader consensus reflecting their near parity amid the riding’s history of fragmented three-way results. Gobeil’s agricultural background and local roots have anchored Liberal support, while Dubé’s platform has sustained Bloc momentum in a Quebec district where sovereignty and regional priorities often dominate. The abbreviated campaign window has limited major shifts, and Conservative Régis Gaudreault trails as a distant third. Upcoming candidate debates or late endorsements could separate the frontrunners before voting.
