Pierre Lapointe (died April 12, 2008) was a municipal politician in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. He served on the Montreal city council from 1998 until his death, originally as a member of Vision Montreal (VM) and later with the Montreal Island Citizens Union (MICU).

Lapointe was the brother of provincial politician Lisette Lapointe and the brother-in-law of her husband, Jacques Parizeau, who served as premier of Quebec from 1994 to 1996.^[1]

Political career

Lapointe was first elected to city council in the 1998 municipal election for the Fleury division. Vision Montreal won a council majority in this cycle, and Lapointe was a backbench supporter of Mayor Pierre Bourque's administration for the next three years. He was re-elected for the redistributed Ahuntsic division in the 2001 election; Vision Montreal was defeated by MICU, and he subsequently served as a member of the opposition.

Lapointe crossed the floor to join MICU on December 12, 2003.^[2] In February 2004, he was elected to MICU's executive committee as one of three members representing the elected party caucus.^[3] He was re-elected under his new party's banner in the 2005 campaign.

By virtue of holding his seat on city council, Lapointe also served as a member of the Ahuntsic-Cartierville borough council following the 2001 election. He died of cancer on April 12, 2008.^[4]
