Union Montreal is no more

Former mayor of Montreal Gerald Tremblay`s Union Montreal political party no longer exists.

According to the Gazette, Elections Quebec stated that Union Montreal`s failure to elect a new leader within their given time limit was one of the reasons for pulling the plug on them.

It was in November 2012 when Union Montreal started to crumble due to accusations of illegal fundraising.

Union Montreal wants to continue to exist in order to continue to testify against accusations made towards them within the Charbonneau commission.

Elections Quebec spokesperson Carl Charest stated that Union Montreal has the option to go to court to challenge the decision Elections Quebec made upon them.
