From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Martin Camirand is a politician from Quebec, Canada, and the Action démocratique du Québec (ADQ) Member of the National Assembly for the electoral district of Prévost.
He served as Councillor in Bellefeuille from 1999 to 2001 and in Saint-Jérôme from 2001 to his election at the legislature.
Camirand was nominated as an ADQ candidate in the 2007 election, after Christian Raymond's candidacy was dismissed by his own party. Raymond had made a controversial statement about immigrants to the local media.[1]
Camirand was elected to represent the district of Prévost with 39% of the vote. Parti Québécois (PQ) incumbent Lucie Papineau finished a close second with 37% of the vote.
