(Quebec, Canada) — Andre Boisclair, whose leadership of the Parti Quebecois was steeped in controversy from Day 1, is stepping down after a crushing electoral defeat and a bitter squabble with Bloc Quebecois Leader Gilles Duceppe. "I gave the best of myself in this position but the current conditions don't allow me to do this anymore," Boisclair told a news conference. "I'm 41. I am still young and I still have a lot of things to accomplish in my life." Boisclair, who was elected leader in November 2005, will stay on as a member of the legislature.
