Quebec cabinet minister Lionel Carmant resigns over escalating doctors crisis

October 30, 2025

A long-time Quebec minister has resigned from caucus, deepening a crisis engulfing the Quebec government over a recently passed law imposing a new payment system on the province’s doctors.

Social Services Minister Lionel Carmant announced Thursday he would leave the governing party to sit as an independent member of the provincial legislature. He was accompanied during the news conference by Premier François Legault, a personal friend.
