QUÉBEC — Quebec’s new Premier Christine Fréchette is set to announce her cabinet today.
Fréchette has had just over a week to put her team together after winning the Coalition Avenir Québec leadership race April 12.
In a recent appearance on Radio-Canada’s “Tout le monde en parle” television show, she teased her cabinet would be a mix of old and new.
She confirmed her only opponent in the leadership race, Bernard Drainville, will have an important role.
