\"Jean-Francois<\/p>\n

Candidate office: 8208 Jean Brillon<\/p>\n

With a background in business, law and economics, Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Labb\u00e9 has lots of ideas about how to develop LaSalle\u2019s potential. He says that the borough\u2019s size and location along the St. Lawrence make it an ideal place for families, business and leisure.<\/p>\n

On day one of his mandate he plans to set up four task forces to work on environmental projects, tax reduction, economic development and attracting families, and security.<\/p>\n

Cleaning up the environment is a key concern to make the borough safe and popular for families. Plans include toxic waste clean-up, door-to-door composting and perhaps the creation of a beach on the St. Lawrence.<\/p>\n

He will rebalance future development to include spaces for families with young children, while also eliminating the borough\u2019s tax surplus.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s lots of industrial land for small business development too. Labb\u00e9 wonders why more economic entrepreneurship isn\u2019t already underway in the borough, given its strengths. He sees possibilities for microbreweries, restaurants and small manufacturers.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s also concerned about security. He says that families need secure spaces and that more lighting in parks, along cycling paths and in strategic portions of the boroughs is needed.<\/p>\n

As a lifelong resident of LaSalle and someone who served in Paul Martin\u2019s cabinet, Labb\u00e9 says he\u2019ll approach colleagues in companies and on the boards of the Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 d\u2019Investissement Jeunesse (SIJ), the Foundation of the University of Quebec at Montreal and CASM (Sector Committee of Manpower) for help in ensuring that LaSalle grows and prospers.<\/p>\n
