Quebec's most famous anti-corruption fighter is about to break his silence -- on a television variety show.
Jacques Duchesneau will make an appearance this Sunday on "Tout le monde en parle," a wildly popular talk show that also features comedians and singers.
Duchesneau is the author of a devastating report that details crooked links among the province's construction industry, crime groups and political parties.
He has not made a public appearance since his report was leaked to the media last week.
The head of the provincial anti-collusion unit is also scheduled to meet with a legislature committee next Tuesday.
The decision to appear on TV first is raising some eyebrows.
But Quebec Finance Minister Raymond Bachand is shrugging it off, saying the Radio-Canada show plays an important role in public opinion.
He noted that this was the same platform often credited for launching Jack Layton's spectacular NDP surge in the spring election.
