MONTREAL - Mario Dumont, who is stepping down as leader of the Action democratique du Quebec, has a new job lined up -- hosting a current affairs show on television network TQS.
The program will be called "Dumont, 360" and will begin in September.
Dumont, 38, will interview newsmakers and ordinary Quebecers.
The outgoing politician will actually join TQS in a few weeks as an adviser.
TQS is the province's third largest TV network.
Dumont announced Tuesday he is quitting as ADQ leader on March 6 after more than 14 years at the helm of the party.
The party won just seven seats out of a possible 125 in last December's election, compared with 41 in the 2007 vote.
