Laurentine Mouchingam Mefire Nguwuo’ Petuenju’ is on the City of Ottawa’s list of certified candidates for trustee of the Conseil des écoles catholiques du Centre-Est (CECCE, the French Catholic school board) in Zone 4, with a nomination filed on August 13, 2026. The other candidate is Jolène Savoie-Day, the board’s current trustee for the sector. Her campaign website, which the City list links, says she wants parents to be recognized as partners in education and sets out six commitments. In a January 2022 article on the newsletter of PPE Ontario, an organization for parents in education, she described herself as president of the school council of Collège catholique Franco-Ouest, which is her own account.

The City’s open data file shows no withdrawal. The other nomination in the zone is by Jolène Savoie-Day, filed on May 4, 2026. The board’s Table politique page lists Savoie-Day as the trustee for sector 4. The City list gives this candidate a website and a LinkedIn page. The LinkedIn page needs a login and was not read. Her campaign website says she is a candidate for school trustee in Zone 4 and that her campaign starts from one principle: a school becomes stronger when families are informed, heard and able to take part in decisions. It lists six commitments, which are parent involvement, equity and inclusion, student success and well-being, dialogue between school and family, representation of the zone’s communities on the board, and decisions that are transparent and focused on students. These are the campaign’s statements, and voche.me has not checked them. The website calls her Dre, which is the French short form of Doctor. voche.me did not find a source for a degree, so it does not state one. The website points to three videos and to a page of “achievements” on the site of NP Consortium Consulting Inc., a company that offers services on equity, diversity and inclusion. That page lists a workshop of February 4, 2025 and a meeting titled “Le Parent-influent”. The page does not say what her role in the company is, so voche.me does not state one. PPE Ontario, an organization for parents in education, ran an article on her in its January 2022 newsletter. In it she said she was then president of the school council of Collège catholique Franco-Ouest and a member of the school council of École élémentaire catholique Saint-Rémi, and that she had sat on diversity and inclusion committees. The article describes her as an adviser on equality, equity, diversity and inclusion and says she has children in CECCE schools. PPE Ontario’s description of a workshop it posted on February 4, 2025 says she led it and calls her a manager of equality, equity, diversity and inclusion at the Department of National Defence. Those are PPE Ontario’s words, and voche.me did not check them with the employer. A video on the website titled “Parlons d’équité et d’inclusion : session d’information” is on the CECCE’s own YouTube channel, posted on September 25, 2024. Its description names the board’s equity and inclusive education team and does not name her, so voche.me cannot say what part she had in it. She holds no public office on the record voche.me read, and the sources read hold no complaint or allegation about her.

[Laurentine 2026 · campaign website (Zone 4, CECCE) ](https://laurentine2026.ca/) Research status ## What voche.me has checked Evidence reviewed on October 7, 2026: the City’s list of certified 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 results for CECCE Zone 4, the board’s Table politique page, her campaign website, PPE Ontario’s article and workshop description, the board’s YouTube video of September 25, 2024, and the page of NP Consortium Consulting Inc. that the campaign website links. 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. Her LinkedIn page needs a login and was not read. The three campaign videos were not watched, so only their titles and descriptions are used. Her degree and her job were not checked against a university or an employer. A general web search engine was not available during this research, so the name search used the websites of Radio-Canada, ONFR and the board only. Radio-Canada and ONFR returned nothing about her. She holds no public role, so no minutes were searched. The voche.me questionnaire has not been sent. 03 / Background ## Experience & community As of January 2022 ### President of the school council, Collège catholique Franco-Ouest; member of the school council, École élémentaire catholique Saint-Rémi This is her own account in PPE Ontario’s article on its January 2022 newsletter. voche.me did not check it with the schools.
