Gilles Duceppe , 1947-, French-Canadian separatist politician, b. Montreal. A union negotiator from 1977 to 1990 and a Quebec separtatist from 1967, Duceppe was a founding member of the Parti Québécois and in 1990 was elected its first member to be elected to the Canadian parliament. He served as party whip (1990-96) for the Bloc Québécois in Ottawa and has been its parliamentary leader since 1997. Duceppe is an advocate of "sovereignty-association," in which an independent Quebec would exist in a European Union-like political and economic association with the rest of Canada.
