No. The Protecteur du citoyen is not mandated to contest decisions by the Premier, ministers or any other elected official.
We cannot comment on government appointments, announcement of public subsidies or the outcome of negotiations.
As Québec’s ombudsman, we are impartial and independent. We act concerning the quality of public services (government departments and agencies, health and social services institutions). We make any required recommendations aimed at rectifying abuse, mistakes or failings (e.g. long wait times, misinformation or unwarranted administrative decisions).
