Now and again, Bloc Québécois MP Denis Trudel returns to his acting roots. Before he was first elected in 2019 to represent the riding of Longueuil–Saint-Hubert, Que., Trudel had been featured in more than 25 films and television series. In 2021, he was involved in a dramatization of L’Affaire Chantal Daigle, a legal drama based on a young Québécois woman’s right to an abortion in 1989. Trudel’s latest gig is of a lighter subject matter, but also inspired by a true story.

From 1995 to 2003, Clement was an Ontario Progressive Conservative MPP and served in the cabinets of Ontario Premiers Mike Harris and Ernie Eves.
