Well that's interesting!
Charest was the Liberal MNA for Matane in the National Assembly of Quebec from 2003 to 2007. In 2014, aged 54 and almost seven years after losing her seat, she was found dead of hypothermia and heavily intoxicated along Highway 195.

Given that electoral results are by their very nature public information, such data that can be found in PoliCan are considered to be in the public domain.
