Patrick Asch: Projet Montr\u00e9al – \u00c9quipe Bergeron <\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

After working with cities across Montreal on grass-roots development for the past 23 years, Patrick Asch has decided to take a different approach to helping people. <\/p>\n

\u201cIf I\u2019m mayor, I\u2019m going to be a full-time mayor,\u201d he says. <\/p>\n

His main priorities will be increasing resident involvement, improving transportation, reducing taxation and improving safety. <\/p>\n

Resident involvement will be increased through committees, hands-on politician involvement in projects and full webcasting of council meetings. <\/p>\n

Taxation is too high too, he says. He believes that he\u2019ll be able to wipe out the local tax within four years of becoming mayor. <\/p>\n

LaSalles worst problem now and in the immediate future is transportation, he says. That\u2019s likely to get worse as the Turcot Exchange and the Champlain Bridge go under repairs. He has ideas for a tram on the old railway line through LaSalle to link the Angrignon Metro with Dorval Airport. <\/p>\n

\u201cRight now, LaSalle residents are boxed in,\u201d says Asch. \u201cWe need easier ways to get into and out of the borough.\u201d<\/p>\n
