For Soulanges.
A candidacy listening to citizens and resolutely focused on the future of our riding
The candidate
Who is Olivier?
I'm as much at home in the field as I am with ideas. As a father of two, I know what it means to build for the future — not in theory, but through the everyday choices that shape a family and a community.
I hold a bachelor's degree in commerce from McGill University and a master's in political science from the Université de Montréal. Over more than twenty-five years, my career has been devoted to the causes that shape Quebec's social fabric: education, the French language, the environment, economic development, and international cooperation.
For four and a half years, I led the Paul Gérin-Lajoie Foundation, whose mission is to improve people's lives through quality education at every stage of life — a cause I believe in deeply. Convinced the time had come to serve in a different way, I stepped down to run in Soulanges.
My path has been as varied as it is grounded: government relations at VIA Rail Canada on mobility and environmental issues, defending Quebec's interests abroad at the Ministère des Relations internationales et de la Francophonie, co-founding a tech recruitment start-up, and fieldwork in West Africa alongside local farmers.
Drawing on this breadth of experience, and on the conviction that education and dialogue are the foundations of a strong society, I'm stepping forward today as a candidate for Soulanges.

Before speaking, we have to listen.
The months leading up to an election are about much more than chasing votes. They are a rare opportunity to take the pulse of a region — to understand what moves it forward, what holds it back, what worries it and what inspires it. That's exactly what I'm doing today, from one end of Soulanges to the other.
From the streets of Hudson to the neighbourhoods of Saint-Lazare, from Pointe-Fortune to Saint-Zotique, from one community hall to the next, I'm meeting residents, associations, businesses, community organizations and elected officials. Not to deliver a speech, but to sit down, ask questions and, above all, listen. Not just hear the words, but understand the realities behind them.
Because Soulanges is a riding of contrasts and quiet strengths. Families putting down roots, entrepreneurs building, seniors who have given so much, organizations holding entire communities together. Each one has a story. Each one has expectations. And each one deserves a representative who truly knows their daily reality before claiming to defend it.
That is the listening — deep and sincere — on which I am building my commitment to Soulanges. Every meeting counts. Every voice adds to a vision shaped with you, not for you.
Have something to say? I want to hear it.
Whether you are a resident, an entrepreneur, a volunteer or a municipal official, your perspective matters. Request a meeting or write to me directly.

For four and a half years leading the Paul Gérin-Lajoie Foundation, I carried a mission born here, in this region, shaped by a man who believed education could transform a society. That conviction became my own — and it is what led me to ask what more I could do.
What I bring is solid experience, genuine listening, and a real commitment to understanding what Soulanges needs, so that every generation can find its place here.
