“When we saw the election signs go up, we thought ‘let’s get up our own,” said John Jordan, the cat’s owner.
“When we thought of a good candidate to nominate, we picked the cat.”
Some of Humbert’s slogans include “an honest face” and “keep the box clean.”
“He’s a man of the people, he’s a well-known public figure in NDG,” said Jordan.
“He gets along with everyone and he has all four paws on the ground.”
Humbert will face-off against Liberal incumbent Marc Garneau, NDP candidate Jim Hughes and Conservative candidate Richard Sagala.
