Leader of the Official Opposition (Quebec)
Encyclopedia : L : LE : LEA : Leader of the Official Opposition (Quebec)
This is a list of the leaders of the opposition party of Quebec , Canada since Confederation (1867 ).
Note that the leader of the Opposition is not always the leader of the political party with the second-largest number of seats, in cases where the leader of that party does not have a seat.
There was no Leader of the Opposition until March 1869 , when the government's second budget was introduced.
