About Me

The son of Quebecor's founder, Pierre Karl Peladeau is the largest individual shareholder in the media company, which prints Le Journal de Montreal. Peladeau has spent more than two decades as CEO, with a three year break between 2014 and 2017, and expanded the company into telecom, sports and entertainment. In 2015, he was elected to lead the separatist Parti Québécois, before resigning in May 2016. In February 2017, he returned as CEO of a very healthy Quebecor, as shares rose 70% during his political stint. Sister Anne-Marie Peladeau sued Pierre Karl Peladeau and his brother Erik over a 20-year-old agreement to buy back her shares, and a judge awarded her $36 million in 2020.
