Well that's interesting!
Thomas is a doctor based in Montréal, best known for his commitment to people with AIDS. Born in Tracadie, New Brunswick, many "back home" were surprised when he chose to run for the Parti Québecois in the 1994 general election. He came in second, short 641 votes out of a total of 31,833, counting the 683 that were rejected.
