Craig Sauvé, former Projet Montréal city councillor, running for mayor

Craig Sauvé, an independent councillor for Montreal's Sud-Ouest borough, is hoping to claim the mayor's seat in the upcoming municipal elections by running for a new party: Transition Montréal. "Until now, Montrealers have had only two options: two old parties that have been in constant opposition on city council for the past four years," he told reporters on Thursday morning. "Our party, Transition Montréal, wants to offer a new voice." The former Projet Montréal city councillor will be facing Luc Rabouin, leader of Projet Montréal, and Ensemble Montréal Leader Soraya Martinez Ferrada. Sauvé was an NDP candidate in the riding of LaSalle—Émard—Verdun during the last federal election.
