Resolution Criteria

Parliamentary elections to elect all 125 seats of the National Assembly of Quebec are scheduled to take place in Quebec on October 5, 2026.

This market will resolve to the political party that wins the greatest number of seats in the National Assembly of Quebec as a result of this election.

If voting in the 2026 Quebec general election does not occur by January 31, 2027, this market will resolve to "Other".

In the event of a tie for the most seats won between this party and any other, this market will resolve in favor of the party that won the most valid votes in the respective election. If this also results in a tie, this market will resolve in favor of the party or coalition whose listed abbreviation comes first in alphabetical order.

This market's resolution will be based solely on the number of seats won by the named party.

This market will resolve based on the result of the election as indicated by a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on the official results as reported by Élections Québec (https://www.electionsquebec.qc.ca).

Market Interpretation

Prediction markets function as real-time consensus engines.

Traders continuously buy and sell outcome shares based on:

• breaking news
• macro developments
• public narratives
• institutional positioning
• probability reassessments

As a result, market pricing reflects aggregate trader expectations rather than static forecasts or polling systems.

At the current pricing structure:

• YES trades near 9.0¢
• NO trades near 90.0¢
• Implied probability sits near 9.0%

These probabilities may shift rapidly as new information enters the market.

Liquidity & Conviction Analysis

Medium liquidity conviction suggests the market currently has medium participation depth.

Higher liquidity environments typically produce:

• tighter spreads
• faster price discovery
• stronger informational efficiency
• lower pricing instability

Lower liquidity environments can produce sharper volatility swings and less reliable consensus pricing.

Why Prediction Markets Matter

Prediction markets aggregate trader beliefs into continuously updating probabilities.

Unlike static polling systems, these markets react in real time to:

• political developments
• macroeconomic events
• institutional sentiment
• narrative shifts
• market-moving news
• crowd positioning

This makes them useful as live probabilistic intelligence systems rather than simple betting platforms.
