Christopher McCray

A climatologist and committed Sainte-Marie resident, Christopher has been putting his scientific expertise and civic involvement to good use in his neighborhood for several years. A researcher with the Ouranos consortium, he analyzes the impacts of climate change in Quebec and contributes to developing adaptation solutions, while also communicating these issues to decision-makers and the general public.

Residing in Montreal for about ten years, he quickly established roots in his community, finding the Village a place of belonging and engagement. Active with Projet Montréal since 2018, he has served on the Board of Directors, co-coordinated the Ville-Marie CoALA, and participated in organizing election campaigns.

On the ground, he co-founded the 'Collectif: Apaisement pour Sainte-Marie' and campaigned with the Ville-Marie Active Mobility Association, contributing to concrete progress such as securing Larivière Street, calming the Jean-Baptiste-Meilleur school area, and improving the cycling network.

Driven by a desire to take more concrete action, Christopher now wishes to put his experience and energy to work for everyone, working towards a safe, resilient, and accessible neighborhood.
