Michel Bourdon (September 19, 1943 – November 29, 2004) was a union leader, journalist, and politician in the Canadian province of Quebec. During the 1970s, he played a major role in exposing corrupt practices in Quebec's construction industry. He later served in the National Assembly of Quebec from 1989 to 1996 as a member of the Parti Québécois (PQ).
Bourdon was married for a time to Louise Harel, herself a prominent Quebec politician. The pair had an amiable divorce and remained political allies in the years that followed.[1] Their daughter, Catherine Harel-Bourdon, became chair of the Commission scolaire de Montréal in 2013.
