Minister Caroline Proulx announced a temporary leave from her duties within the Legault government. The news was shared via social media, where she outlined the reasons for her decision.
Reason for Leave
Proulx revealed that her mother recently passed away unexpectedly. This loss has made it difficult for her to fully process her grief amidst her political responsibilities. To prioritize her emotional well-being, she will take a few weeks off to recuperate and regain focus.
Responsibilities During Absence
While Proulx is on leave, Lionel Carmant will oversee her duties and ensure continuity in her portfolio. Proulx was previously responsible for tourism before transitioning to her current role managing senior affairs following a recent cabinet reshuffle.
