Parti Québecois (PQ), provincial political party committed to the
independence of Quebec. ... Among its first acts was the passage of Bill 101,
controversial legislation that made French the official language of Quebec
and prohibited the use of English on signs and in most commercial
transactions. ... In May, 1980, voters in the long-awaited
provincial referendum rejected the proposition that Quebec should proceed
to negotiate for its independence. ... He resigned as premier
and party leader, however, after Quebec voters narrowly rejected
independence in a PQ-sponsored referendum in 1995; Lucien Bouchard
succeeded him.
