The return to the fold of the member for Vaudreuil, Marie-Claude Nichols, will not have lasted long. In fact, less than 24 hours after the announcement of the MP’s return to the Liberal fold, the caucus refused the offer of interim leader Marc Tanguay.

For her part, the MNA for Vaudreuil, who learned of the turnaround from the media, decided to wait for the election of the future leader of the PLQ before deciding whether to make the jump again within the PLQ caucus… As the says the proverb so well, “Scalded cat fears cold water”.
