Add article description

Frédérick Têtu is a teacher born in the city of Québec (Qc, Canada) in 1967. He holds a B.A. and a master's degree in philosophy from the Université Laval (Canada), and a bachelor of law (LL.B) from McGill University (Canada). He has done further studies in political science at Boston College (USA).

In 2017 he co-founded Quebec municipal party "Québec 21" to challenge sitting mayor Régis Labeaume. He also announced, on June 1, 2017, that he would run for a seat as municipal councilor.[1]

However, after giving a radio interview while highly intoxicated (alcohol),[2] he quit the campaign and never came back. In a post-interview, radio anchor Yannick Marceau said he kept Têtu in the studio to "protect other drivers on the road" signalling the candidate might otherwise have driven under influence.[3]
