In 2015, the Bloc’s Marcil was elected MP. In 2018, Marcil, along with six other Bloc MPs, resigned from office due to conflicts with then-Bloc leader Martine Ouellet. After Ouellet resigned, Marcil rejoined the party.

He announced in January 2021 that he would not be seeking another mandate, citing the need to spend more time with family.
