Since the 1993 election, Quebec has federally been almost exclusively the province of a fight between the Bloc Quebecois and the federal Liberals.
No longer. The Conservatives are now back on the radar screen in La Belle Province with the support of one in five Quebeckers. In fact, they're now tied with the Liberals, who have slumped to 21% themselves.

The significance of this poll for the Conservatives? Whether it would translate into seats is debatable, but it does demonstrate that many more Quebeckers are listening to and are taking the Conservatives seriously and would consider voting for them. No longer can the Tories' political rivals claim that they're not ready for running the country due to nearly no support in Quebec.
The poll is also significant as it signals a strong shift in the perceptions and preferences of Canadian voters in terms of which parties they will support. We've already seen the shift in Ontario and Atlantic Canada along with bolstered strength in the traditional stronghold in the West, and now we see it beginning in Quebec. And it may also hopefully usher in a great new era in Canadian politics which could spell very good things and good times ahead for the federation should the Conservatives win and implement their excellent, sensible, workable policies as well as cleaning up the massive corruption wrought by the crooked old "Liberal" party, which itself has lost the respect and support of four in five Quebeckers.
A Conservative minority is the most likely outcome according to current polling, but I personally am certain that the best thing for Canada and Canadians would be a Conservative majority, as, among other things, it will end political instability and uncertainty and also, due to its superior economic and fiscal policies, will lead to economic expansion all over the federation. It would also strengthen national unity, something the Liberals actually weakened with their cavalier show of disrespect towards not only Quebec but towards Western Canada as well, particularly Alberta.
Granted, the Bloc Quebecois continues to enjoy massive support which will indubitably lead to them winning probably more seats than they had as they entered the election.

But that will change eventually once Quebeckers see for themselves the good government and respect they will definitely receive from the Conservatives led by Stephen Harper.
A Conservative government, particularly a majority one, will be very good for Canada and Canadians. Of this I am absolutely certain.

Stand up for Canada. Vote Conservative.
