Quebec Liberal leader Philippe Couillard is promising to open 25 additional super clinics if his party is re-elected on Oct. 1.
He made the weekend commitment in the Quebec City region during the third day of the provincial election campaign.
During its previous mandate, the governing Liberals promised to open 50 super clinics and 49 of them are now in operation.
They are open seven days a week, 12 hours day.
The Liberals are also promising to allow pharmacists to administer vaccines to children.
Couillard says that to make life simpler for parents, a second health insurance card will be supplied for children under the age of 14.
Meantime, the Coalition Avenir Quebec has boasted that it will have more women than men running in the current election campaign.
The CAQ, which opinion polls suggest is leading the governing Liberals, will have 65 women and 60 men seeking election.
It's been described as the highest percentage of women candidates ever reached by a Quebec political party.
There are 125 seats in the Quebec national assembly.
The only party that has come close is the small nationalist Quebec solidaire which has always run 63 women in a provincial election.
One of its two co-leaders is a woman, but the party only has three seats in the Quebec legislature.
As well, Legault is defending the CAQ's decision to release private messages to the media.
Speaking in St-Amable, Legault said he made the call to make public messages between the party and now-Liberal candidate Gertrude Bourdon.
Bourdon, former health care administrator in Quebec City, chose to run for the Liberals after almost running for the CAQ.
La Presse has obtained and published texts showing a CAQ cabinet chief wrote to Bourdon on Aug. 16 saying, his words, "I truly believe we will have the opportunity to make history together,” to which Bourdon replied: " believe it as well.”
Bourdon turned down his offer 2 days later.
Meantime, during his first campaign visit to his Montreal area riding of Rosemont, Parti Quebecois leader Jean-Francois Lisee focused on urban agriculture.
He said that a PQ government would promote the installation of rooftop greenhouses, but added it would only apply to new construction.
Lisee also criticized Legault for his proposal to raise the legal age for cannabis use in Quebec to 21 from 18.
"The reality is that most of the weed bought in Quebec today is by people between the ages of 18 and 21,'' Lisee said on Saturday.
"The CAQ position is that they should keep going to organized crime to buy their weed.''
The PQ leader said his party's position is that users should go to the stores being set up by the Quebec government to get their supply.
Also on the weekend campaign trail, Quebec solidaire promised Airbnb legislation.
As well, it says it's still against building a third link between Quebec City and Lévis.
Party spokesperson Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois said Saturday building more highways is an "old idea"of "old parties."
