Key facts

  • Alan DeSousa is the Borough Mayor of Saint-Laurent, one of Montréal's boroughs — chairing the borough council and sitting on Conseil municipal de Montréal. DeSousa is not Montréal's city-wide Mayor; for issues affecting the whole city, write to the Mayor instead.
  • Municipal councils handle local matters: property tax, zoning and building permits, garbage/recycling/water, snow removal, local bylaws (noise, parking, pets), and parks and recreation. For health care, tenant disputes, or ODSP/OSAP, write to your provincial representative instead; for immigration, federal taxes, or passports, write to your MP.
  • Identify yourself as a resident: full name, home address, and which ward or the general city if the seat is city-wide, so staff can confirm you're within Montréal. Constituent mail is prioritized.
  • Letters to municipal councillors need regular postage — there's no postage-free rule at the municipal level (unlike mail to federal MPs).
  • PostPal prints your letter and deposits it with Canada Post the next business day for $6 — no printer, envelope, or stamps needed.

How to send your letter

  1. 1

    Check it’s a municipal matter

    Montréal council can act on local files: property tax, zoning and permits, garbage/recycling/water service, snow removal, local bylaws, and parks. If your issue is health care, a tenancy dispute, or ODSP/OSAP, that's provincial — write to your MPP/MLA instead; immigration, EI, or passports go to your federal MP.

  2. 2

    Write to DeSousa at Conseil municipal de Montréal

    DeSousa chairs the Saint-Laurent borough council and can raise a borough-specific issue directly with staff or at a council meeting. Mail goes to Conseil municipal de Montréal's office at 777, boulevard Marcel-Laurin, Montréal, QC H4M 2M7.

  3. 3

    Say who you are and where you live

    Open with your full name, address, and which ward you're in (if the seat is ward-based) so DeSousa's office can confirm you're a resident. One page, one issue, and a specific ask — support or oppose an item on an upcoming agenda, or raise a problem with a department.

  4. 4

    Send it without printing anything

    Write your letter in PostPal with Alan DeSousa's address prefilled — we print it, stamp it, and hand it to Canada Post the next business day for $6.

Common questions

What is Alan DeSousa's mailing address?

Alan DeSousa, Borough Mayor, 777, boulevard Marcel-Laurin, Montréal QC H4M 2M7.

Is DeSousa the mayor of Montréal?

No — DeSousa is the Borough Mayor of Saint-Laurent, one of Montréal's boroughs, and chairs that borough's council. Montréal also has one city-wide Mayor, elected separately, who chairs the central city council that DeSousa also sits on. Write to DeSousa for anything specific to Saint-Laurent; write to the city-wide Mayor for issues affecting all of Montréal.

Should I write to my borough mayor, my MPP, or my MP?

Depends on the issue. City council is municipal: property tax, zoning, garbage/water, snow removal, local bylaws, parks. Your MPP/MLA is provincial: health care, education, housing and tenant disputes, ODSP/OSAP. Your MP is federal: immigration, taxes, EI, passports. Name the program — the wrong office will redirect you, but starting in the right place is faster.

Do I need a stamp to write to DeSousa?

Yes — mail to municipal councillors takes regular postage; there's no postage-free rule at the municipal level. If you'd rather skip the stamp and printer entirely, PostPal prints and mails your letter for $6 flat.

Do I have to live in Saint-Laurent to write to DeSousa?

No, but ward-specific casework is normally only taken up for residents of Saint-Laurent. If you live elsewhere in Montréal, your own ward councillor is the better first contact — or write to DeSousa specifically about a citywide issue.

Will Alan DeSousa actually read my letter?

Constituent mail is logged by council office staff, and issues tied to an upcoming agenda item get flagged directly. Include your return address — PostPal prints yours automatically — so a reply has somewhere to go.
