This is something I've thought about for awhile now. I'm not sure what POD you would need to make it happen, but what if Jean Charest had been able to beat Kim Campbell to become the PC Leader, as well as Prime Minister to replace Brian Mulroney? People at the time did compare the two to the story of the Tortoise and the Hare, so perhaps the race goes on a bit longer, and Charest (the Tortoise) is able to defeat Campbell?

What effect would this have on the 1993 Federal Election? Would the PCs still be as devistated as they were in OTL, or might they do better under Charest? Heck, is their anyway he could give them the OO? Might they even do better than that?

Overall, what would be the short term and long terms effects of this on Canada? Would this have any impact on 1995? Could Charest still become Premier of Quebec?
