Vermont Commissioner Resigns, Deputy Named as Replacement

Deputy Commissioner Mike Bertrand will be appointed insurance commissioner in Vermont, after Paulette Thabault resigned from that position earlier this week.

Gov. Jim Douglas said Thabault will take a position with CVS Caremark MinuteClinic.

Bertrand, who currently serves as deputy commissioner, will be appointed commissioner in June, according to the governor’s office.

Bertrand is a long-time bureaucrat in Vermont, having served as deputy secretary of administration, commissioner of the department of Labor and Industry and as a special assistant to Gov. Douglas.
