Quebec Liberal news

http://www.radio-canada.ca/regions/est-quebec/2009/08/25/007-candidats_scrutin_fed_bas_st_l.shtml

2008 Liberal candidate Jean Bouchard says he is leaning toward running again in Montmagny – L'Islet – Kamouraska – Rivière-du-Loup, one of 3 (soon to be 4) vacant ridings. The article also says that local BQ organizers are "currently seeking a candidate to succeed outgoing MP Paul Crête", which could be a sign that Crete is not going to attempt to gain his nomination back after failing to be elected as the PQ candidate in the Rivere-du-Loup by-election.

The article also mentions 2008 Liberal candidate Pierre Béland as being interested in running again in the area riding of Rimouski-Neigette – Témiscouata – Les Basque.

This article says that
nutritionist Anne Gagne is likely to be the Liberal candidate for the riding of Quebec, in contradiction to a report in Le Soleil a few days ago that former provincial Liberal minister Jean Leclerc was still considering a run.
