Yves Ducharme

Yves Ducharme is a Canadian politician who was the Mayor of Gatineau from 2002 to 2005 after the city had been merged with its neighbours, part of the supra-organization known as the Communauté urbaine de l'Outaouais, and was Mayor of Hull, in the Outaouais region, from 1992 to 2002. He was defeated in an election in 2005 by Marc Bureau and decided to quit municipal politics. He became president of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities.

Political career
Ducharme entered municipal politics in 1986 when he was elected as the city councillor for the Mont-Bleu District of the then-City of Hull until being elected mayor in 1992. He served as mayor until 2001, when Hull was forced to merge with the surrounding cities of Gatineau, Aylmer, Buckingham and Masson-Angers. The bigger city was named Gatineau, and Ducharme became its first mayor in 2002 after beating Gatineau's former mayor Robert Labine in the election. In 2005, he lost re-election to first-time candidate, city councillor Marc Bureau, who won 68% of the vote in an election in which the participation rate was 47,3%. ==Electoral record==
