  • Vicki May Hamm has a diploma in social work from the Cégep de Sherbrooke and has been involved in several public initiatives in Magog.[1] In 2003, she campaigned for an unsuccessful proposal to undo the merger of Magog Township with the city of Magog.[2] She was elected to the Magog municipal council in 2005, defeating incumbent councillor Michel Voyer in the city's fourth ward.[3] She chaired the toponymy committee after the election and was responsible for overseeing street name changes in the amalgamated community.[4] In 2006, Hamm was the only member of council to oppose a commercial re-zoning that allowed for the possible establishment of a Wal-Mart store.[5] She won an upset victory over Marc Poulin for the mayoralty in 2009.[6] During the campaign, she supported development in the Mont-Orford National Park.[7] In 2010, she initiated a re-organization of Magog's administrative structure.[8] By virtue of her position as mayor, Hamm also serves on the Memphrémagog Regional County Municipality, where she chaired the local development centre until her resignation in August 2010.[9] In November 2010, she took part in the reconstruction of an orphanage in Haiti.[10]
  • Marc Poulin was first elected as mayor of Magog in 1998, after serving as a councillor for twelve years.[11] The following year, he launched a significant residential development project and a December blood drive.[12] In 2001, he promoted a merger between Magog, Magog Township and Omerville; the provincial government mandated this merger the following year, and Poulin was elected as mayor of the expanded city in December 2002.[13] He declined an offer to run as a Parti Québécois candidate in the 2003 provincial election, saying that he was not a supporter of Quebec sovereigntism.[14] He was re-elected to a third term as mayor in 2005, without opposition.[15] Poulin was defeated in 2009 following a divisive campaign. He has openly criticized Vicki May Hamm, his successor, and has said that he may run for mayor again in 2013.[16]
  • Alain Vanden Eynden is a businessperson in Magog. He spoke against proposed development at the head of Lake Memphremagog in 2000, arguing that the area's tourist appeal depends on its environmental integrity.[17] He was elected to the Magog municipal council in 2005, winning a four-way contest in the city's fourth district.[18] In 2008, he supported a referendum initiative for a new library.[19] In 2009, Vicky May Hamm accused Vanden Eynden of conspiring with Marc Poulin to siphon votes away from her; this accusation was rejected.[20] In 2010, Vanden Eynden was president of the Magog Orford colors festival.[21]
