Constituency Man of the Decade

BQ MP Gérard Asselin was a city councillor in Baie-Comeau — the southern terminus of Route 389, and an important jumping-off point to Labrador — from 1979 to 1993.

In 1993 he was elected as MP for Charlevoix, and re-elected in 1997 and 2000. After redistribution, he won the newly-enlarged Manicouagan (on approximately the same boundaries that Mulroney held from 1984 to 1988) in 2004 and 2006.

And yet it wasn't until October 2006 the he finally got around to driving the 389 to Fermont, a town of 3,000 in his own riding, for the very first time?
