Christine Fréchette: “I’ll compete in the Trois-Rivières riding vacated by Labour Minister Jean Boulet.”

I remain deeply convinced that the third way is the right way for Quebec.

I think every riding in Quebec has the possibility of becoming a cradle of the coalition to keep the third way active, and we’re working toward that.

“My opponent is Donald Trump; he is the real opponent,’’ said Fréchette on Aug. 27, in Quebec City, adding, “I’m asking for a mandate to move forward through a storm.”

“As premier, I am proud to have initiated a genuine transformation of Quebec’s economy — a transformation that is essential in the current context,” she said.
