Let them eat poutine

Emperor Jean I... once again... takes swift & decisive action...
-- QUEBEC -- Premier Jean Charest has named a former cabinet minister who quit provincial politics as Quebec's new justice minister.

Jean-Marc Fournier, who until this week was working as an adviser to federal Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff, will replace Kathleen Weil.

Fournier, who does not have a seat in the legislature, has to win a byelection in a Montreal-area riding.
Sigh... I remember democracy.
