Montreal municipal election, 1998


The city of Montreal, Quebec, Canada held municipal elections on November 1, 1998, to elect a mayor and city councillors. Pierre Bourque was returned to a second term as mayor against a divided opposition.

Various suburban communities on the Island of Montreal also held elections on November 1.

Party colours do not indicate affiliation or resemblance to a provincial or a federal party.

Sources: "Quebec election results stay true to polls," Montreal Gazette, 3 November 1998, A8; Le Gardien, September–October 2001, p. 28. The former source indicates that Ryan was returned by acclamation, though it does not provide council results. The latter source lists all Montreal North councillors at the time of the city's amalgamation into the new megacity of Montreal in 2001; all listed councillors except Brabant were members of the previous Montreal North council (1994–98), and it may be reasonably assumed that they were re-elected in 1998. The sources listed do not clarify if Brabant was elected in 1998 or in a subsequent by-election, nor do they specify if he was a member of Renouveau municipal.
