Newly minted Quebec Premier Christine Fréchette has unveiled a cabinet that leans on experienced ministers, opting for stability instead of a shakeup as her government heads into a pre-election period.
After winning the Coalition Avenir Québec leadership race on April 12, Fréchette spent just over a week before introducing the senior members of the team she is expected to lead into a fall general election.
