# 35th Quebec Legislature

The 35th National Assembly of Quebec was the provincial legislature in Quebec, Canada that was elected in the 1994 Quebec general election and sat from November 29, 1994, to March 13, 1996, and from March 25, 1996, to October 21, 1998. The Parti Québécois led by Jacques Parizeau and Lucien Bouchard were in power during this mandate. Jacques Parizeau resigned after the 1995 Quebec sovereignty referendum which resulted in a narrow victory for the "no" side, and Bouchard succeeded him as PQ leader and Premier in 1996.
