Pilon was born in 1956 in

Montreal Gazette wrote a profile piece on his business as a
clothesline installer.
[15] He has been a Green Party candidate in Outremont in four federal elections: in
2006 , in a 2007
by-election won by
Thomas Mulcair , in
2008 , and in 2011. During the 2008 election, he appeared on the ballot as "F. Monsieur Corde à Linge Pilon" (which translates as "F. Mr. Clothesline Pilon").
[16] He is not to be confused with a different
François Pilon who was elected as a
New Democratic Party
