Montreal needs a catalyst so we can believe in that city again.”
The MP recently registered a new party named ‘Equipe Denis Coderre pour Montreal’ with Elections Quebec last month. In the announcement on Thursday, Coderre mentioned that Montreal does not need a savior, but rather someone who can assemble a great team. He vowed to present a distinct and elaborative program for Montreal in the coming weeks. He stated that “it’s time to roll up our sleeves and restore our city’s pride, the self-confidence that has always characterized our community.”
