Candidates

Jean-Lesage: Jean Bédard

Jean Bédard is a laundry employee and union advisor.[1] He is a perennial candidate for the Marxist-Leninist Party, having run under its banner in seven federal and six provincial elections. He appears to have been a low-profile candidate; during the 2003 election, the newspaper Le Soleil indicated that it was unable to obtain an interview with him.[2]
