For Murray Wood, Easter brings to mind grandma's practical advice about repurposing, and some of life's little lessons.
QUÉBEC — François Legault is attending what is likely his last sitting at the legislature as Quebec premier.
The national assembly is on recess next week and the Coalition Avenir Québec is scheduled to choose a new leader on April 12.
Either Christine Fréchette or Bernard Drainville will be sworn in as the new premier shortly after the weekend’s leadership convention.
Legault, who became premier in 2018, will stay on as an elected member of the legislature until the October general election.
The Air Transat founder got started in politics in 1998 under former Parti Québécois premier Lucien Bouchard and created the CAQ in 2011.
Legault has been known for his high approval ratings throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and for butting heads with the federal Liberals over immigration and his party’s controversial secularism law.
