The Lorraine City Council (in French: Conseil municipal de la Ville de Lorraine) is the governing body of the mayor–council government in the city of Lorraine, Quebec, Canada. The city and its council were established on February 4, 1960 by means of Private Bill 125 of the Twenty-Fifth Legislature of the Legislative Assembly of Quebec (now National Assembly of Quebec).
Since June 1962, regular sittings are held once a month at the Garth House, 100 Grande Cote, Lorraine, Quebec. The agenda for each meeting is not published in advance resulting in low citizen attendance.

Wandering the face of the earth a fatherless child....”
