Nouveau Montréal
Nouveau Montréal (abbreviation: NM; English: New Montreal〔Nouveau Montréal was initially known in English as the New Montreal Party; on 13 October 1998, the name was officially changed to New Montreal. See Eric Siblin, "What's new? New Montreal, that's what!", ''Montreal Gazette'', 14 October 1998, p. 8.〕) was a municipal political party in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, from 1998 to 2001. The party was led by Jacques Duchesneau, who was also its candidate for mayor in the 1998 municipal election.
==Origins==
Duchesneau announced the formation of Nouveau Montréal on 29 April 1998, shortly after standing down from a four-year term as the city's police director. At the time, public opinion polls in Montreal showed Duchesneau leading incumbent mayor Pierre Bourque and all other potential candidates for the position.〔Sarah Binder, "Former police chief enters mayoralty race," ''Canadian Press'', 29 April 1998.〕 Duchesneau's control of Nouveau Montréal was never in question, and some critics charged that it was more his personal electoral vehicle than a proper political party.〔Aaron Derfel, "Three remain in mayoral contest," ''Montreal Gazette'', 2 May 1998, p. 1; Peggy Curran, "Dore campaign short on ideas: Plenty of personality, but little in way of platform," ''Montreal Gazette'', 23 May 1998, p. 3.〕
Sitting city councillors Jack Chadirdjian, Germain Prégent, Marie Lebeau, Pierre Gagnier, Louise Roy, and Robert Laramée joined Nouveau Montréal soon after its founding, giving the party representation from both the centre-right and centre-left.〔"New Montreal Party lands Chadirdjian," ''Montreal Gazette'', 16 May 1998, p. 4; Michelle Lalonde, "Ex-cop may form official opposition: 4 councillors flock to Duchesneau," ''Montreal Gazette'', 20 May 1998, p. 7; Michelle Lalonde, "More councillors join Duchesneau team," ''Montreal Gazette'', 21 May 1998, p. 13.〕 This allowed the party to become the Official Opposition on council on 25 May 1998, with Chadirdjian serving as leader of the party's council grouping.〔"Laughs greet new city opposition: Duchesneau's man hates budget he used to like," ''Montreal Gazette'', 26 May 1998, p. 3.〕 Independent councillor Michael Applebaum joined the party shortly thereafter, and Philippe Bissonnette also joined before the election.〔"Sauve on ex-cop's team for council," ''Montreal Gazette'', 29 May 1998, p. 5.〕 Another councillor, Thérèse Daviau, decided against seeking re-election and did not join the party, but supported it from the outside.〔"Daviau leaving council," ''Montreal Gazette'', 16 May 1998, p. 4.〕
