Actually the Bloc Quebecois is a federal party only; Charest led the provincial Liberal party (after being in a different party at the federal level). You might be thinking of the Parti Quebecois, which is the provincial sovereigntist party. (And also has a lot of not-actual-sovereigntists voting for them just because they're not the Liberals.)
Thanks; somehow I keep getting the names Bloc and Parti Quebecois confused. And yes, that Charest was a Tory at the federal level is part of why I was skeptical of the provincial Liberal party he was leading.
