Charles-Eugène Laforest was the uncle of the webmaster of PoliCan, Maurice Michaud. Maurice recalls, "He ran when I was a teenager living in Moncton, New Brunswick. That was back in the day when people wrote letters and I remember when he sent us a copy of his electoral pamphlet. I didn't remember when he ran or for which party (or that he got clobbered) until I built PoliCan." |
