Josée Verner is the Conservative Heritage Minister. She is her party's candidate in the Quebec City riding of Louis St. Laurent. But Verner lives in the riding of Portneuf-Jacques Cartier, the only riding in the country where there is no Conservative candidate and that is where, according to the BQ, she voted this morning.
The Tories opted not to run a candidate in Portneuf preferring instead to let independent incumbent André Arthur have any votes that come from the right side of the political spectrum. (Though he is an independent, Arthur tended to support the government on most votes and the government did him a favour in giving a seat and speaking time on the Commons' Industry Committee).
So, with no Tory running in the riding she lives in, the Bloc Québécois just asked:
"Pour qui donc madame Verne a-t-elle voté?" Who did Verner vote for?
