Beloeil, July 31, 2026 — The Quebec Liberal Party is proud to announce Mr. Xavier Mercier as its candidate in the Borduas riding for the upcoming general election.
A native of Mont-Saint-Hilaire, where he grew up for nearly twenty-five years, Xavier Mercier has an intimate understanding of the realities of the district. A student at Au-Fil-de-l’Eau Elementary School and later at Ozias-Leduc High School, he also played for the Mont-Saint-Hilaire Cougars for seven years.
Drawing on his local roots, Xavier Mercier has built a career that reflects his ambition and his constant drive to excel. Starting out as a carpenter and joiner, he went on to earn a bachelor’s degree in business administration from UQAM while working full-time. He subsequently moved into the financial sector, notably at the Bank of Montreal and Manulife, before helping to develop a Toronto-based Canadian fintech company. During his tenure, this Canada-wide company experienced significant growth, expanding from $35 million in assets to $2.2 billion in just four years. More recently, he served as Director of North American Sales at Ezeflow, a global industrial manufacturer.
Deeply committed to his community, Xavier Mercier has served as vice chair of the board of directors of the Saint-Hyacinthe Health Camp Foundation since 2024. Personally aware of the challenges of neurodiversity, he also hopes to help improve the range of services available to neurodivergent adults and their loved ones.
Deeply attached to the region where he grew up, Xavier Mercier now hopes to put his experience in management, business development, and leadership to work for the citizens of Borduas. Convinced that the district deserves representation fully dedicated to its priorities, he is committed to defending the interests of families, entrepreneurs, and organizations in the region with energy, diligence, and a personal touch.
“Borduas watched me grow up. It was here that I learned the value of hard work, held my first jobs, and built the roots that still define me today. I want to give back to this community that has given me so much by putting my experience to work for its residents. I want to be a representative who is present, accessible, and fully dedicated to our region’s priorities. I am proud to represent the Quebec Liberal Party and help build a more prosperous and efficient Quebec.”

Whether through his experience in the manufacturing and finance sectors or his community involvement, he has always sought to make a difference. With his energy, his knowledge of the region, and his commitment to serving residents, Xavier will be an excellent candidate for Borduas and a valuable asset to our team.”
