About Michel Charron

The City of Ottawa’s list of certified candidates for the CECCE, last updated September 9, 2026, shows Michel Charron in Zone 6 with a nomination filed on July 10, 2026. The City’s open data file shows no withdrawal. The other nominations in the zone are by David Elisma (May 6, 2026), Samtou Tchamdja (August 20, 2026) and Jaycob Jacques (August 20, 2026). The City list gives him no website or social media account. The City’s 2022 results for Zone 6 name Franklin Epape and Denis Forget and do not name him.

The board’s Table politique page, read on October 7, 2026, lists Michel Charron as the trustee for sector 1 and names three schools that the sector serves: École catholique L’Envol, École élémentaire catholique Mgr-Rémi-Gaulin and École secondaire catholique Sainte-Marie-Rivier. The board’s notice for its public meeting of September 8, 2026 names M. Charron among the trustees called to the meeting. The City’s list covers Ottawa only, and sector 1 is outside Ottawa, so it shows no other nomination for him.

The VoteMate statement is in French and is labelled as submitted by the candidate or his team. In it he says he is seeking a third term at the Table politique but this time he is running in sector 6, which includes Capitale, Kitchissippi, Somerset and Rideau-Vanier, and that at the local level all his commitment is on the well-being of the student. The statement does not name the sector he now represents. voche.me joined the board’s listing of a Michel Charron for sector 1 to this candidacy because of his own statement about a third term and because the name is the same, and found no page that states the link in the board’s or the City’s words.

voche.me found no recorded vote by him. The board’s page of public meetings shows the notice and agenda of its next meeting and no minutes of past meetings. The sources read hold no complaint or allegation about him.

Summarized from the campaign’s published profile. These are stated positions, not an assessment of results or a complete platform.

No platform positions have been supplied.

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 and its 2022 results for CECCE Zone 6, the board’s Table politique page and its page of public meetings with the notice of September 8, 2026, and his VoteMate statement. 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. The sources do not say when he was first elected to the board or whether he is on the board’s committees, so the number of his terms rests on his own statement. No page in the City’s or the board’s words states that the Zone 6 candidate and the sector 1 trustee are one person. The City list gives him no website or social media account, and no campaign page was found. A general web search engine was not available during this research, so the name search used the websites of Radio-Canada, ONFR, VoteMate and the board only. A Radio-Canada photo caption of March 23, 2021 names a Michel Charron at the start of construction of a school in Kingston without giving his role, and voche.me did not use it. The board posts no minutes of past meetings on the pages read, so his votes are unknown. The voche.me questionnaire has not been sent.
