Why he might be annoying:

    He frequently has a snarl on his face.
    He was fired by Brian Mulroney for opposing the Meech Lake Accord.

    After the Bloc garnered opposition status, he refused to reside in Stornoway (the house for the leader of the opposition).
    He frequently changed political parties prior to forming the Bloc.
    His main reason for resigning as the premier of Quebec was his failure to promote sovereignty.

    He was considered one of the central figures in the Quebec sovereignty issues during the mid 1990s.
    The Bloc Quebecois became a major player on the Canadian political scene.
