Valérie Plante, who previously served as the mayor of Montreal, is set to become the on‑screen host of a new television documentary series titled “Ça brasse en ville.” The program will be broadcast by the French‑language network TV5 and is scheduled to air in Montreal, Quebec, during the week of September 9‑13, 2026.
Plante’s transition from municipal leadership to a role in television comes after her tenure at the helm of the city. While she was mayor, she oversaw the administration of Montreal and represented the city’s interests. Following that period, she moved into the media sphere, taking on the responsibilities of a television presenter.
The documentary series, “Ça brasse en ville,” will be produced for TV5 and will be shown to audiences in Montreal. As host, Plante will guide viewers through the episodes, which are framed as a documentary exploration. The series’ title suggests a focus on the dynamics of urban life, though specific episode content has not been detailed beyond the series’ name and format.
The programming block is slated for the week of September 9‑13, 2026, positioning the series as a weekly feature in the network’s schedule for that period. Plante’s involvement as host marks her latest public engagement following her mayoral service, extending her presence in the city’s cultural landscape through television.
The series will be accessible to viewers in the Montreal region, aligning with TV5’s commitment to French‑language programming. The collaboration between Plante and TV5 underscores a continued connection between the former mayor and the city’s media outlets, as the documentary series prepares for its debut in early September.
