Reflection and observation on mergers

Reflection and observation on mergers

In an open letter published in the Pontiac Journal, the former mayor of Val-Senneville in Abitibi Norbert Deslauriers said he preferred inter-municipal agreements rather than mergers. Entitled: Reflections and observations on mergers, this letter denounces the effect of mergers in the world of municipalities. Among other things, he cited the loss of volunteers and the sense of belonging.

On the other hand, he asserts that time will tell if mergers are better.
