Alice Abou-Khalil

Alice Abou-Khalil represents the riding of Fabre in Laval as a Quebec Liberal MNA. She is part of a younger wave of Quebec Liberals who entered the National Assembly as the party worked to rebuild from its historic defeats to the Coalition Avenir Québec and Québec Solidaire, seeking to reconnect with communities in the Montreal metropolitan area — including Laval's large Lebanese-origin and broader Middle Eastern diaspora communities — where the Liberals retain support. Fabre is a suburban Laval riding with a diverse immigrant population that has historically found its political home in the Liberal Party's tradition of openness to immigration, multiculturalism, and federal engagement. These voters have real concerns: the cost of housing in Laval has risen dramatically, community services have not kept pace with population growth, and the integration pathways for newcomers — healthcare recognition, credential validation, language training — remain inadequate. Abou-Khalil is new enough in the role that a comprehensive evaluation of her record is premature. She is building a casework reputation, learning the legislative process, and navigating a party in rebuilding mode. The opportunity she has is to be part of shaping what a renewed Quebec Liberal economic platform looks like — one that takes seriously the cost-of-living pressures on exactly the communities that support her. The risk is that she becomes another Liberal MNA who speaks the language of economic inclusion while the party recycles the assumptions that produced the affordability failures of the governments that came before. Her constituents in Fabre will be watching which version of Alice Abou-Khalil shows up.
