cabinet minister: He joins fellow Liberal cabinet ministers Martin Coiteux, Stephanie Vallee and Jean-Marc Fournier in deciding to pack it in, according to The Chronicle Herald. At least one other cabinet minister is reportedly contemplating his future, while about 10 Liberal backbenchers have also said they won't run again in the Oct. 1 vote. Heurtel confirmed the news on his Facebook page Friday and said illness in his family makes it impossible for him to continue his political career. Heurtel, 45, was first elected in a December 2013 byelection and was re-elected in his Montreal riding the following year. In Montreal, Couillard paid tribute to Heurtel. He served as environment minister between 2014 and 2017 before moving to the immigration portfolio.
