Usage

This template (or its redirected alternative version {{QuebecMLAbio}}) creates a citation link to the biography page at the National Assembly of Quebec website of a parliamentarian in Quebec (or its predecessor entities, Lower Canada and Canada East) who ever held an elective office (even if later appointed to a non-elective body).

This includes members of the following elective bodies:

• The present-day unicameral house, the National Assembly of Quebec
• The above under its former name of Legislative Assembly of Quebec (1867 until name change on December 31, 1968)
• The Legislative Assembly of the Province of Canada 1841–1867, for Canada East
• The Legislative Assembly of Lower Canada 1792–1838

Note: there was no elected house from 1838 to 1841, in the aftermath of the Lower Canada Rebellion.

Use {{QuebecMLCbio}} instead for parliamentarians who never held an elective office.

This includes members of the following non-elective, appointed bodies:

• the Legislative Council of Quebec (1867 until abolition on December 31, 1968)
• the Legislative Council of the Province of Canada 1841–1867, for Canada East (elective from 1856–1867)
• the Special Council of Lower Canada 1838–1841
• the Legislative Council of Lower Canada 1792–1838

Other parameters

name (or just use second unnamed parameter): if specified (and text is unspecified), sets link text to "Biography of name at National Assembly of Quebec website". This is useful if you need to cite a person's biography on some other person's page. Ignored if text was specified.

text : The link text. If unspecified (and name is also unspecified), this defaults to "Biography at National Assembly of Quebec website". Overrides name.

fr : Specify |fr=no to suppress the default notification that the webpage is in French.

Note: Nearly all of the biographies are available in French only, even if the URL uses /en/ instead of /fr/.
