served on the Plateau-Mont-Royal borough council. When Pierre Bourque resigned as Vision Montreal leader to run for the National Assembly of Quebec in 2003, Tétrault said that he respected Bourque's decision but did not personally support it. He added that he would "have to look at the options" as to whether he would remain with the party. During the 2003 provincial election, Tétrault criticized the Quebec Liberal Party for its pledge to permit referendums on municipal demergers. He argued that the pledge would create instability for municipal government on the Island of Montreal, where several municipalities had recently been merged to create a united city. Later in the same year, he supported Mayor Tremblay's compromise plan to devolve some powers to the city's borough councils. Tétrault resigned from Vision Montreal to sit as an independent on March 4, 2004, and joined MICU on October 26 of the same year. In the 2005 municipal election, he ran for re-election in the Louis-Riel division of the Mercier–Hochelaga-Maisonneuve borough and was narrowly defeated by Vision Montreal incumbent Richer Dompierre. Early reports suggested that Tétrault had won by twelve votes, but a more thorough scrutiny confirmed Dompierre as the winner. Private career Tétrault has a Master of Arts degree in political science from the Université de Montréal. After leaving city council, he co-founded Groupe T & T Media with Paul Tietolman. In 2011, Mr. Rajiv Pancholy, former CEO of Microcell Connexions, joined the group of Tietolman Tetrault as a partner and shareholder and formed 7954689 Canada Inc. better known as Tietolman Tetrault Pancholy Media (TTP Media). In 2013, the group was granted three licenses to launch new AM radio stations in the Montreal market: English and French talk radio stations and a French sports radio station. As of August 2016, however, all three stations remain unlaunched, the French sports radio license has expired, and both of the other two licenses are also set to expire in November if they have not launched by then.
