It's official now: it's Premier Pauline Marois.

Marois was sworn in as Quebec's 30th premier, and the first female premier, Wednesday afternoon in Quebec City.

Shortly after the swearing-in, marois presented her new cabinet in the Red Room of the National Assembly.

The province's new finance minister is Nicolas Marceau, Stephane Bedard is the Treasury Board president, while Rejean Hebert becomes health minister.

Veronique Hivon is the new public security minister, while longtime PQ adviser Jean-Francois Lisee gets international affairs, and becomes the minister responsible for the Montreal region.

Responsibility for language falls to newly-elected Cremazie MNA Diane de Courcy, while Sylvain Gaudreault becomes municipal affairs minister.
