Key facts

  • Mélanie Dufresne is the Councillor for District 1 on Conseil municipal de Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, representing District 1.
  • 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 Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu. 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

    Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu 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 Dufresne at Conseil municipal de Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu

    Dufresne represents District 1 and can raise a ward-specific issue directly with staff or at a council meeting. Mail goes to Conseil municipal de Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu's office at 188, rue Jacques-Cartier Nord, Casier postal 1025, Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, QC J3B 7B2.

  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 Dufresne'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 Mélanie Dufresne's address prefilled — we print it, stamp it, and hand it to Canada Post the next business day for $6.

Common questions

What is Mélanie Dufresne's mailing address?

Mélanie Dufresne, Councillor, 188, rue Jacques-Cartier Nord, Casier postal 1025, Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu QC J3B 7B2.

Should I write to my councillor, 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 Dufresne?

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 District 1 to write to Dufresne?

No, but ward-specific casework is normally only taken up for residents of District 1. If you live elsewhere in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, your own ward councillor is the better first contact — or write to Dufresne specifically about a citywide issue.

Will Mélanie Dufresne 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.
