Outgoing Mayor Denis Coderre: 'Mission accomplished'

“Mission accomplished.”
In his first press conference since losing Sunday’s election, outgoing Montreal Mayor Denis Coderre said under his administration Montreal went from a city that had self-esteem issues to major international player that is drawing investors from around the world.
“Things are happening,” he told reporters at city hall Wednesday morning. “We can say mission accomplished. Montreal is in an extraordinary situation.”
