Will Jean Charest Move From Federal to Quebec Politics
The piece weighs Charest's chances in a Quebec leadership bid amid Quebec sovereignty pressures and federal Tory collapse. It notes polls showing Charest as the only hope to beat the Parti Québécois, the risk of alienating soft sovereigntists, and Premier Lucien Bouchard’s stance on timing and referendums. It concludes Charest faces a damned-if-he-does, damned-if-he-doesn’t dilemma and hints he may head to Quebec.
