Quebec Premier François Legault resigned Wednesday morning.
With the province set to hold an election in October, Legault said he is stepping down “for the good of his party and the good of Quebec.”
He added he wants Quebecers to vote based on “big issues” like the economy and the French language, and not just a desire for change.
“I know a lot of Quebecers want a new premier,” he said.
