“Once again, CAQ gives a big, exciting salary to a senior government official while the caregivers in the health network have to be content with the crumbs,” said Vincent Marisal, of Quebec Solidere.

As president of the Société québécoise du cannabis (SQDC), Mr. Bergeron earned a base salary of $ 297,395 for the last fiscal year. His term will begin in Lotto Quebec on May 31.

“In order to stop people like the new CEO of Loto-Québec from making more than $ 500,000 a year, Québec Solidaire specifically requests a maximum salary for top executives. […] So that their pay does not exceed 10 times the lowest salary in the organization, ”said a member of Solidarity at Rosemont.

End of service reward for M.I Roiter can be worth more than $ 430,000, or an entire year’s salary.

Due to the closure of casinos and game halls, Lotto-Quebec’s finances have been severely affected by the epidemic.
