Québec solidaire held a co-spokesperson election in 2025 after the resignation of Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois from the position.
Background Under Québec solidaire's constitution, the party is de facto led by two co-spokespersons; it was required that one of the co-spokespersons be female and the other male. However, the constitution was amended to remove the requirement that one co-leader be male.
Nominations for the election opened on 15 August and closed on 14 September. The application must contain 500 valid signatures and a $10,000 entry fee. The result was announced on 8 November, at the party's convention. A forum for the candidates was held on 5 October, and the last day to become a member to vote was 9 October.
