A long-serving minister in Quebec’s Coalition Avenir Québec government has resigned amid a scandal over at least half a billion dollars in cost overruns related to the auto insurance board’s online platform.
Cybersecurity and Digital Technology Minister Éric Caire made the announcement Thursday on social media, calling the controversy surrounding the digital transformation of the Société de l'assurance automobile du Québec (SAAQ) “totally unacceptable.”
