QUEBEC The 70 Quebec Liberals elected in last weeks provincial election will be sworn in on Thursday as members of the Quebec National Assembly, a Liberal caucus source confirmed on Monday.

Premier-designate Philippe Couillard is huddling with his closest advisors to determine the lineup of the new Liberal cabinet he will announce after the Easter break, although no firm date for the cabinet announcement has been made.

When the cabinet is named, Couillard will be sworn in as premier and his cabinet members as ministers.

Quebecs 41st legislature is to meet first as early as May 6, the date set by the Marois government for the resumption. But the assembly could resume sitting later than that pro-forma date, to allow members of the new government to familiarize themselves with their new responsibilities.

Jean St-Gelais, whose title, secretary general of the executive council, means he is Quebecs top civil servant under outgoing-Premier Pauline Marois, met last week with his Liberal successor, Juan Roberto Iglesias.

But both Liberal and PQ sources kept mum on Monday about the prospect of a meeting this week between Marois and Couillard to symbolize the transition of power, but there were unconfirmed reports of a final meeting of the Parti Qubcois cabinet on Wednesday.

Elections Quebec reported Monday that the election of 123 of Quebecs 125 elected representatives has been confirmed.

Laviolette riding, which remained Liberal, is to report on Tuesday, and Ungava, which switched from the PQ to the Liberals, is to report its final tally on Thursday.

Both are huge ridings. In the case of Ungava, where Quebecs Inuits, Crees, Naskapis as well as transplanted southerners live, about 26,000 voters inhabit a territory covering about two-thirds of the provinces surface area.

Liberals to be sworn in on Thursday

The Liberals have won back the district of Virginia Waters. In a very close race between Cathy Bennett and Danny Breen that was separated by only 40 votes, it came down to the last poll. For the PCs and NDP it was a crushing defeat, but for the Liberals, their third straight byelection victory. VOCM's Fred Hutton reports.

It was close, but in the end Cathy Bennett won the byelection in Virginia Waters by just 40 votes. While Bennett took the lead early on and didn't look back, it actually came down to the last poll.

The dramatic moment was broadcast live on VOCM as reported by Linda Swain. Less than 50 per cent of the 9,853 people who were eligible to vote cast ballots. Here's a final rundown. Cathy Bennett (LIB): 1932 votes, Danny Breen (PC): 1892 votes, Sheilagh O'Leary (NDP): 1021 votes.

In her victory speech, Bennett thanked her family and campaign workers and vowed to work hard for people of the district. For Liberal Leader Dwight Ball, it was a very satisfying victory.

Danny Breen will take his seat back in the council chambers. He says it's been a busy few weeks and he will take some time before deciding whether he'll run again. Breen says he thinks Bennett's head start in her bid to be Liberal leader could have had some impact on the result, but he says the momentum shifted back in his favour considerably over the last week. He says someone had to win and someone had to lose; it's just part of the game.
