Episode description

Christine Fréchette is only the second woman to serve as Quebec premier, but she won’t have much time to bask in her victory. With a provincial election looming in less than six months, her party is trailing in the polls. But she’s presenting herself as a pragmatic, resilient leader who’s ready to take on the challenge of rebuilding her party’s fortunes and reconnecting with Quebecers. CBC National Assembly Reporter Cathy Senay walks us through the road ahead for Quebec’s new premier, towards what's shaping up to be a battle of Gen-X party leaders.
