CORNWALL, Ontario – The Coalition for Unity, Respect & Equity/Equality for All (CUREA) has offered their views on one possible candidate to fill the vacant office of Mayor of the City of Cornwall.
On Tuesday, Cornwall Mayor Bernadette Clement resigned after being named to the Senate of Canada. Under the Municipal Act, Council has 60 days to fill the vacancy either through appointment, or through a by-election.
If Council decides to appoint someone to fill the vacancy from within their own ranks one possible candidate would be Councillor Glen Grant, a long time City Councillor and current Chair of the Police Services Board.
