Amir Khadir ((ペルシア語:امیر خدیر); born June 12, 1961) is a Canadian politician in the National Assembly of Quebec (MNA), Canada for the electoral district of Mercier, and the first male spokesperson for Québec Solidaire, a sovereigntist and left-wing political party which was created by the merger of the Union des Forces Progressistes and Option Citoyenne, a feminist political movement, in February 2006. On December 8, 2008, Khadir became the first, and at that time, only elected representative for Québec Solidaire in the general election in Quebec. In 2012, Françoise David was elected in Gouin, making her the second elected representative for Québec Solidaire. In November 2012, Khadir stepped down as co-spokesperson, to allow the party to choose a new co-spokesperson from outside of the legislature, in keeping with party statutes. "It's the logical next step. First, for a party that considers itself feminist, it would be fairly contradictory to finally have a female deputy of Françoise's quality in the National Assembly and not have her be the spokesperson," Khadir said. == Biography == He was born in Tehran, Iran in 1961 and emigrated to Canada at the age of ten.〔 He was involved in many humanitarian organizations such as Médecins du Monde. He studied physics at the undergraduate level at Université de Montréal and subsequently at the graduate level at McGill University. He then studied medicine at Université Laval. A medical specialist in infectious microbiology, he practiced at the Centre hospitalier Pierre-Le-Gardeur in Lachenaie, a section of the city of Terrebonne. Khadir is a member of the ''Coalition des Médecins pour la Justice Sociale'' (Coalition of Doctors for Social Justice), which opposes the privatization of the Quebec health care system. He has led missions to Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Palestinian territories for Médecins du Monde, and until 2004 he presided over the administrative council of SUCO, which stands for ''Solidarité-Union-Coopération''. Khadir is married to Nima Machouf. They have three children named Daria, Yalda, and Leyli.〔Radio-Canada.
