Mile-End
Le Plateau-Mont-Royal
Marie Sterlin has lived in Mile End for more than twenty years. It is in this neighborhood that she raised her daughter, got involved in school committees, greening initiatives, and block parties, and gradually built deep ties with her community. For her, Mile End became fertile ground for civic engagement—a place where she realized that local action can truly transform a living environment.
For several years, she worked as a researcher and writer before making a decisive shift to documentary filmmaking in 2013. She then focused on the effects of gentrification in central neighborhoods, at a time when the issue was still rarely discussed. Her fieldwork and sensitivity to social realities led her to publish a book on the fair distribution of urban prosperity. Today, she serves on Montréal’s Commission on Social Development and Diversity, where she continues to champion these issues.
A grassroots elected official and keen observer of socio-economic dynamics, Marie is committed to building neighborhoods that are vibrant but above all inclusive. Her engagement is guided by a deep conviction: that every person, regardless of their background or circumstances, should be able to thrive and contribute to collective life. Bridging the gap between citizen knowledge and political action is what she strives to do every day.

The Team
Le Plateau-Mont-Royal
Plateau-Mont-Royal is a unique, dense and vibrant neighborhood that prioritizes sustainable transportation and people in our streets. Rich in history, built heritage and culture, it is also distinguished by the diversity of its residents and its deep values of solidarity. A hub of Montreal life, it combines memory and modernity, authenticity and creativity. At Projet Montréal, we want to continue this inspiring evolution: building a greener, more inclusive, dynamic and safe living environment that cares for everyone and responds ambitiously to the climate and housing crises.
