As Montreal gears up for its upcoming mayoral election on November 2, all eyes are on the candidates vying for the city’s top position. One such candidate, Luc Rabouin, leader of Projet Montréal, recently sat down with CityNews for an insightful one-on-one interview about his vision for the city and his priorities if elected as the next mayor.
Rabouin shared his commitment to making Montreal a more sustainable and accessible city for all residents. With a focus on proposing tangible, concrete solutions to address the city’s pressing issues, Rabouin emphasized the importance of engaging Montrealers in the election process and ensuring that their voices are heard.

In addition to housing, Rabouin also discussed the pressing issue of homelessness in Montreal, pledging to develop transitional units to support individuals in need and work towards long-term solutions to address the crisis.
When it comes to transportation and mobility, Rabouin outlined Projet Montréal’s vision for a “15-minute city,” focusing on accessibility to green spaces, affordable housing, and efficient public transit options. By investing in an express bus network and promoting active transportation, Rabouin aims to reduce congestion and enhance the overall mobility experience for Montrealers.
Rabouin’s overarching goal is to build “a city that cares,” where families can thrive and enjoy a high quality of life. By prioritizing neighborhood well-being, affordable housing, and community support, Rabouin hopes to retain young families in Montreal and create a city that truly values its residents.
As he vies for the mayoral position, Rabouin’s extensive experience in municipal governance, combined with his passion for making a positive impact, positions him as a compelling candidate to lead Montreal for the next four years.
