Simplifier la ville – No additional employees
Luc Rabouin focuses on efficiency: maintaining stable municipal staffing levels until 2029
Montreal, September 10, 2025 — At a time when cities need to improve their operations and maximize the efficiency of their existing resources, Luc Rabouin, leader of Projet Montréal, is committing today to maintaining municipal staffing levels at the same level as at the beginning of his term. The goal: to simplify and improve the efficiency of services while respecting the ability of Montrealers to pay.
To achieve this, Projet Montréal wants to build on the city's greatest asset: its employees.
"We are not in a period of growth in terms of staffing or spending. Projet Montréal is committed to ensuring that in 2029, the City of Montreal will not have a single employee more than it did in 2025. Our goal is clear: to do better with what we already have. We are fortunate to be able to count on committed and competent teams. More than ever, I want to recognize their expertise, value it and capitalize on their know-how in order to identify concrete actions that will enable us to be a more efficient organization," continues the leader of Projet Montréal.
The Projet Montréal team is committed to maintaining these staffing levels by focusing on:
- Simplification of administrative processes
- More efficient management of human and material resources
- Prioritization of activities and services
- Recognition of borough autonomy
Projet Montréal is thus pursuing its mission: to offer quality public services, ensure rigorous management of public finances and respect the ability of Montrealers to pay. We want to simplify people's lives.
