Paul St-Pierre Plamondon sticks to his convictions. Plus: Is the solution to overloaded ERs more Habs playoff games?

from The Big Five Podcast · host CJAD 800

Elias Makos is joined by Graham Singh, CEO of Releven, and Political analyst Karim Boulos. After being confronted by a poll that showed him winning a majority government – but only if he ditched his promise of a referendum – Paul St-Pierre Plamondon is sticking to his convictions. Premier Christine Fréchette unveiled her cabinet yesterday. The cabinet has 29 ministers in total, 12 women and 17 men. Many who were in the last cabinet shuffle have kept their roles including Justice Minister Simon Jolin Barrette and Finance Minister Eric Girard.  Turns out all Quebec needs to lower the ER occupancy in the province is the Habs making the playoffs.
