Jean Charest ousts Tony Tomassi

Yesterday, 4 PM. I am slowly and robotically editing and post producing stock photos I shot in Toronto. Then the call comes. The Gazette wants me at the National Assembly in 30 minutes to get photos of a press conference by Jean Charest. Gathering the camera, getting in the car, making a small detour to get my accreditation… Not supposed to be able to do it on time, but I fly down there and managed to arrive before Charest arrives.

As expected, it was about Tony Tomassi, finally ousted from the Liberal cabinet, after months of pressure following allegation of corruption.

So here is Quebec Premier Jean Charest grimacing, then looking down.
