Clive Doucet (born 1946) is a Canadian writer and politician. Doucet was born in 1946 in London, England to an Acadian serviceman from Grand Étang〔clive Doucette, Noted in a (book review), ''Globe and Mail'', August 07, 2009 )〕 and an English war bride. Doucet grew up in the city of Ottawa, Ontario. He also spent some of his youth in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador. Doucet was raised as a Catholic, and his mother was Protestant. He became a Quaker in 1980. He first came to Ottawa in his teens when his father worked there. Doucet played for the Carleton Ravens football team for one season, and then moved to the University of Toronto. A football injury took him out of that sport and into the sport of rowing. In his younger days, he spent a summer working in a rock copper mine in British Columbia and helped build the National Arts Centre as a construction worker. Before entering politics, Doucet was a municipal affairs policy advisor.〔Mohammed Adam, "Clive Doucet: Accidental politician", ''Ottawa Citizen'', September 13, 2010〕 ==Politics== In the 1997 regional elections, Doucet ran for Ottawa-Carleton Regional Council in Capital Ward, which includes The Glebe, Old Ottawa South, Old Ottawa East part of Riverview Park, Carleton University and Heron Park. He was an activist against the proposed Bronson Freeway, which propelled him to victory. Central to his political platform has been the creation of a light rail rapid transit system across Ottawa manifested to date with the O-Train demonstration project (today's Trillium Line). On July 6, 2010, Doucet announced his candidacy for Mayor of Ottawa in the October 25 municipal election. Doucet joined a record number of 115 candidates running for municipal office in 2010, of which 15 challenged mayoral incumbent Larry O’Brien.
