A committed jurist, she has worked for nearly twenty years within organizations whose mission is to protect the public, promote access to justice and strengthen con\ufb01dence in institutions.<\/p>\n<p>More recently, as Director of Legal Affairs at the Bar of Montreal, she was involved in a number of issues relating to governance, institutional integrity and the fight against the illegal practice of law. Her career has also led her to participate in the modernization of organizational practices, and to work at the intersection of law, public policy and the social issues shaping today's Quebec.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to this, she worked for over fifteen years as a lawyer at Loto-Qu\u00e9bec, where she was involved in strategic files with regulatory, operational and reputational dimensions. She has also worked for the Quebec Court of Appeal and for federal administrative tribunals in connection with the application of the Employment Insurance Act.<\/p>\n<p>Pinou Thong arrived in Quebec at a very young age, with a deep attachment to social justice, inspired by the journey of her Cambodian parents who fled a totalitarian regime. Highly involved in her community, she participates in various initiatives linked to education, inclusion and civic life. Active in the Sanguinet riding, she is particularly involved in her child's school and sports life, as well as in karate in her community.<\/p>\n<p>Drawing on her professional experience and civic engagement, she now hopes to put her expertise and energy to work for the citizens of Sanguinet and actively contribute to the region\u2019s future.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=\"in_container\u00a0\" full_screen_row_position=\"middle\" column_margin=\"default\" column_direction=\"default\" column_direction_tablet=\"default\" column_direction_phone=\"default\" scene_position=\"center\" text_color=\"dark\u00a0\" text_align=\"left\" row_border_radius=\"none\" row_border_radius_applies=\"bg\u00a0\" row_position_desktop=\"default\" row_position_tablet=\"inherit\" row_position_phone=\"inherit\" overflow=\"visible\" overlay_strength=\u00a0\"0.3\" gradient_direction=\"left_to_right\" shape_divider_position=\"bottom\" bg_image_animation=\"none\"][vc_column column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_tablet=\"inherit\" column_padding_phone=\"inherit\" column_padding_position=\"all\u00a0\" flex_gap_desktop=\"10px \" column_element_direction_desktop=\"default \" column_element_spacing=\"default \" desktop_text_alignment=\"default \" tablet_text_alignment=\"default \" phone_text_alignment=\u00a0\"default\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_backdrop_filter=\"none\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" column_link_target=\u00a0\"_self\" column_position=\"default\" gradient_direction=\"left_to_right\" overlay_strength=\"0.3\" width=\u00a0\"1\/1\" tablet_width_inherit=\"default\" animation_type=\"default\" bg_image_animation=\"none\" border_type=\"simple\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text css=\"\" text_direction=\"default\"]<\/p><blockquote><p>\"Quebec has offered me extraordinary opportunities, and my career path has taught me just how essential strong, accessible and trustworthy institutions are to our society.
