Mathieu Fleury (born September 26, 1985 in Ottawa, Ontario) is the former Ottawa City Councillor of Rideau-Vanier Ward. He won the ward in the 2010 Ottawa municipal election, defeating the incumbent Georges Bédard in a narrow contest, the youngest City Councillor to be elected at that time.[verification needed] He was re-elected as the councillor in the 2014[2] and 2018 Ottawa municipal elections. He indicated in early 2022 that he would not seek re-election in the 2022 municipal elections.[3]

He was the recipient of the 2023 Bernard Grandmaitre award from ACFO Ottawa[4] and L'Ordre de la Pléiade "Chevalier" 2023.[5]

Early life and education

[edit]

Fleury was born in Ottawa and raised in Sandy Hill and Lowertown neighbourhoods.

He attended Francojeunesse and Franco-Cité School in Ottawa, and later attended the University of Ottawa.[6]

Municipal career

[edit]

Fleury was the chair of the Ottawa Community Housing Board,[7] the Ottawa Sports Commissioner,[8][9] a member of the city of Ottawa's Transportation Committee[10] and the Community and Protective Services Committee.[11]

During his career, Fleury lobbied for infrastructure improvements,[12] including the Adawe Bridge,[13] the reconstruction of Sussex Drive,[14] Rideau Street Reconstruction[15] and Montreal Road development.[16] He supported the city of Ottawa's move to become a bilingual city.[17][18][19] Fleury has also lobbied for the increasing of "safe supply" of narcotics, which he claims to prevent overdosing and drug-associated crime.[20][21][22]

Following his term in office, Fleury worked as the interim executive director of J.W. MacIntosh Community Support Services in Williamsburg, Ontario, an organization that provides housing and community support services.[23][24]

On August 28, 2023, it was announced by Cornwall, Ontario, Mayor Justin Towndale, that Fleury would serve as the city's new chief administrative officer (CAO) for a period of 5 years.[25][26]

On October 9, 2024, Katherine Wells, director of government relations and corporate priorities for the City of Cornwall, released a brief statement to the media that the city had "parted ways" with Fleury.[23]

In March 2026, new figures from Ontario’s Sunshine List (which tracks public sector salaries), indicated that Mathieu Fleury received some $229,464.90 in 2025 from the City of Cornwall although not reported as working for the municipality since leaving City Hall in October 2024.[27] Even without an additional $2,154.57 reported as benefits, this put Fleury ahead of all other City of Cornwall workers in 2025.[28]

Personal life

[edit]

Fleury is married to his wife Lai.[29]

He has made political donations to several Liberal politicians in the past, including Madeleine Meilleur, Mona Fortier and Nathalie Des Rosiers.[30]
