If the NDP form the next federal government, who will be the next Minister of Foreign Affairs?
Paul Dewar: 25%
Hélène Laverdière: 15%
Any Western MP: 20%
Any Other Ontario/Atlantic Canada MP: 20%
Any Other Quebec MP: 20%
(See the note about yesterday's question)
The current NDP Foreign Affairs Critic is Ottawa Centre MP Paul Dewar. Montreal MP Hélène Laverdière has also served as Foreign Affairs critic, and is currently Deputy Critic. G. Daniel Carron, the NDP candidate in the Quebec City riding of Louis-Saint-Laurent, is another contender (if he wins the race, which is very uncertain at this point).
I think that Dewar or Laverdière are the most likely candidates. A Quebec MP is probably more likely for this post than for Finance, given the NDP's over-representation in Quebec.
