Background
France Bélisle was elected as Mayor of Gatineau in the 2021 mayoral election, becoming the city's first female mayor.[1] However, on February 22, 2024, Bélisle announced that she would resign, citing a toxic work environment and having received death threats; Daniel Champagne was then made acting mayor, pending the 2024 Gatineau mayoral by-election.[2] The election was won by Maude Marquis-Bissonnette, retaking the city's top job for the party.[3]
