Dan Boudria

Current Conseil des écoles catholiques du Centre-Est trustee for Zone 8 (Orléans Sud-Navan) and the board’s vice-chair, listed by the City as an acclaimed candidate for another term.

Dan Boudria is on the City of Ottawa’s list of candidates for trustee of the Conseil des écoles catholiques du Centre-Est (CECCE, the French Catholic school board) in Zone 8, which covers City Ward 19, with a nomination filed on May 5, 2026. The City’s page, last updated September 9, 2026, lists him as an acclaimed candidate, so there is no vote for this seat on October 26, 2026. The board’s own pages list Daniel Boudria as the trustee for its sector 8 and as vice-chair, and the board says he has served the sector since 2006. The City list gives him a Facebook page and a LinkedIn profile, and neither could be read; voche.me found no 2026 campaign statement from him.

About Dan Boudria

The City of Ottawa’s list of certified and acclaimed candidates for the CECCE, last updated September 9, 2026, shows Dan Boudria as the acclaimed candidate in Zone 8 (Ward 19), with a nomination filed on May 5, 2026. The City’s open data file shows him as the only nomination in the zone and shows no withdrawal. The City list gives him a Facebook page and a LinkedIn profile and no website.

The board’s Table politique page lists Daniel Boudria, vice-chair, as the trustee for sector 8, named as Orléans-Sud-Navan, and names seven schools that the sector serves: Collège catholique Mer Bleue, École élémentaire catholique Alain-Fortin, École élémentaire catholique de la Découverte, École élémentaire catholique Notre-Dame-des-Champs, École élémentaire catholique Notre-Place, École élémentaire catholique Marie-Soleil and École secondaire catholique Béatrice-Desloges. The board’s pages write his first name Daniel, and the City, Radio-Canada and ONFR write Dan. The board’s release of November 18, 2025 says the trustees re-elected him vice-chair for a ninth term and describes him as the trustee for Orléans Sud-Navan since 2006. The board’s notice for its public meeting of September 8, 2026 names him as vice-chair.

Radio-Canada reported on August 19, 2022 that eight school board candidates were elected without opposition, and it named Dan Boudria among them. The City’s 2022 results sheet for CECCE Zone 8 holds no votes and carries the line “Acclaimed”, which means nobody ran against the candidate.

ONFR reported on May 14, 2022 on a dress-code check at École secondaire catholique Béatrice-Desloges in Orléans, a school that the board lists in sector 8. Students told ONFR that girls were taken to the principal’s office to have the length of their shorts measured, and students protested outside the school. The board’s preliminary findings, quoted by ONFR, confirmed that a dress-code check took place, said that no student had been asked to bend over, said that a number of students felt degraded and humiliated, and apologised to students and families. ONFR called Dan Boudria a trustee and vice-chair of the board. It reported that Stephen Blais, then seeking re-election as the provincial member for Orléans, wrote on Twitter that Boudria had committed to a full inquiry, and that Boudria wanted to take part in a dialogue to revise the dress code. A post by Boudria dated May 14, 2022, shown in the article, says that students must be treated with dignity and respect and that such a situation should never happen again. The allegations in the article are the students’ accounts of what school staff did.

The board’s news releases quote him on two projects in the Avalon area of Orléans. On the start of construction of a new elementary school in the Avalon area (release of October 11, 2024), he said the project came from the collective work of the school community and answers a growing demand for modern school buildings. On the opening of École élémentaire catholique Marie-Soleil (release of September 17, 2026), he said the school meets a real need in a growing area and lets more Avalon families reach a French Catholic education close to home.

voche.me found no recorded vote by him. The board’s page of public meetings shows the notice and agenda of its next meetings and no minutes of past meetings. voche.me found no 2026 campaign statement from him and no complaint or allegation against him in the sources read.

What voche.me has checked

Evidence reviewed on October 7, 2026: the City’s list of certified and acclaimed candidates for the CECCE (an Internet Archive copy of the page last updated September 9, 2026), the City’s open data file of nominations, the City’s 2022 official results for CECCE Zone 8, the board’s Table politique page and its page of public meetings with the notice of September 8, 2026, three board news releases (November 18, 2025, October 11, 2024 and September 17, 2026), the Radio-Canada article of August 19, 2022, the ONFR article of May 14, 2022, and the VoteMate listing, which holds no profile text. CTV News Ottawa’s guide to school board candidates, published September 9, 2026 and updated October 5, 2026, was also read; it lists the candidate by name under the CECCE and quotes nothing.

Gaps. His Facebook page returned no content without a login, and his LinkedIn profile refused the request, so neither was read. The general web search tool refused because the session’s search allowance was used up. A campaign page or a post that only a general search would find may exist. The board’s page of public meetings shows the notice and agenda of its next meetings and no minutes of past meetings. His votes are unknown. The board’s release quotations are statements made for the board’s news releases. The voche.me questionnaire has not been sent.
