On October 27, 2026, the Union of Municipalities of Quebec (UMQ) announced the opening of nominations for the Mérite Ovation municipale 2027 awards, which celebrate outstanding contributions by municipalities in Quebec. These awards aim to highlight achievements in local governance and community service, encouraging municipalities to showcase their best practices and innovative projects.
Candidates can be nominated in various categories, reflecting the diverse priorities and initiatives undertaken across Quebec’s municipalities. The UMQ encourages municipalities to participate and share their success stories, as the awards not only serve to recognize hard work but also to inspire others in the public sector.
The nomination process includes specific criteria and guidelines, which will be detailed on the UMQ’s official website, enabling local governments to submit their candidates in a structured manner. The UMQ emphasizes the importance of local voices in addressing community needs and fostering sustainable developments.
As the UMQ represents a significant number of municipalities in Quebec, this initiative is expected to have a broad regional impact, enhancing collaboration and showcasing local achievements across the province.
