DescriptionGrowing support for the Conservatives in the province of Quebec is actually "good news," says Transport Minister Jean Lapierre.

Speaking on CTV's Question Period Sunday, Lapierre -- Martin's Quebec lieutenant -- said that anything that will prevent the Bloc from gaining enough support to bring in another referendum on sovereignty is good.

Lapierre is also facing a tough fight from Conservative candidate Daniel Fournier in the riding of Outremont. But Lapierre says he's not worried.

"If Mr. Fournier is taking votes away from the Bloc, then that's helping me," said Lapierre.
