QUEBEC CITY Martine Ouellet has not said her last word in politics. The former Parti Quebecois (PQ) minister and former leader of the Bloc Quebecois is back in action and has announced that she is creating a new political party that is both environmentalist and sovereignist. As its name indicates, the raison d etre of the Climat Quebec party will be the relentless fight against climate change, a task that will only be possible, according to its leader, if Quebec becomes a sovereign nation. Her party was launched Friday and Ouellet aims to field a team of 125 candidates in the next general election in October 2022.
