Just translated parts of the article linked (below the translation) with Google translate and it seems like he is on our side ;) Maybe someone who speaks french could get a more accurate translation?
Des jeunes critiques
M. Legault s'était adressé à une centaine de jeunes participants de l'École d'été un peu plus tôt, en revenant sur ses priorités déjà connues: évaluation des enseignants, hausse de salaire pour ceux qui passent le test, abolition des commissions scolaires, compressions chez Hydro-Québec, investissements de la Caisse de dépôt dans l'exploitation des ressources naturelles, encouragement de l'entreprenariat.
Translation:
Young critics
Mr. Legault had addressed a hundred young participants of the Summer School earlier, returning on its priorities already known: teacher evaluation, salary increase for those who pass the test, abolition of commissions school cuts at Hydro-Québec's investments Caisse in the exploitation of natural resources, encouragement of entrepreneurship.
I liked this a lot (from your article Foghorn):
Legault, a self-made millionaire and former president of Air Transat, said he wants Quebec to stop being a “have not” province at the receiving end of equalization payments and become “as rich, if not richer, than the other provinces.”
