Well, most of us québécois have voted for the PQ at one point or another in our life: for most voters, the PQ is the only alternative to the Liberals, and was, for a very long period, the only alternative on the left of the political spectrum.

In Quebec, there's generally no stigma associated to the fact that someone has been a supporter of the PQ, even in the Franco-federalist circle (yes, they exist! But they are usually not very passionate about this). Very few people care about your past political affiliations, really.
