- Abstract
The publication of Quebec's National Policy on Architecture and Regional Planning (PNAAT) challenges geography in several respects. It is the result of an 18‐month development process and is built around the sustainable development paradigm. This storytelling is part of a generalized trend in planning. In Quebec, several public policies adopted since 2000 show a strong narrative. Consequently, it is necessary to address the nature of this narrative: is it the consolidation of the existing theoretical frame or a partial or total reframing of the paradigm developed in previous policies? In addition, what potential role will be played by the storytelling resulting from the PNAAT in terms of mobilizing stakeholders? These questions will lead us to compare various Quebec public policies, in terms of terminology as well as orientations and objectives. Our results illustrate the fact that the narrative of the PNAAT is in line with the territorial policies previously proposed. In addition, the call for sustainability and the fight against climate change has an obvious mobilizing power.
