Following the resignation of their co-spokesperson Emilize Lesard-Tharein, elected representatives of Quebec Solidaire (QS) have come to the defense of their parliamentary leader Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois.
He was absent from Parliament on Tuesday, and QS indicated that he was shocked by what had just happened and needed a moment.
In a message posted on social media, Lessard-Tharein suggested on Monday that the party leadership had infiltrated Ndeau-DuBois’s entourage.
At a press briefing in the National Assembly on Tuesday morning, MNA Christine Lavery said the criticism of Ndeau-DuBois was unfair.
Her colleague Alexandre Leduc was disappointed that people were looking for someone to blame.
Vincent Marisal, the only MNA to support Belsard-Tharein in her race to become speaker, said the parliamentary leader needed to change things in the way he ran the party.
