Among my objectives and priorities, I intend to help make Pincourt a town that respects the environment and invests in culture. This means making environmental and ecological issues an inescapable factor in all policies and decisions touching on our development.

I believe that we all have an obligation, both legal and moral, to make sure all future development safeguards the environment and does not contribute to climate change. We must think globally and act locally.

Another priority I have set myself is to invest in culture and promote our cultural diversity by putting on high-quality shows and activities. Our town also needs a cultural centre.
