In the latest twist in an epic legal battle, an administrative tribunal has found the mayor of the Montreal borough of Côte-des-Neiges—Notre-Dame-de-Grâce, Sue Montgomery, guilty of 11 ethics violations, prompting one political rival to call for her resignation.
It's a setback for Montgomery in a bitter fight rife with accusations and counter-accusations between her, borough bureaucrats, and Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante.
"She did not act in a way that favoured the maintenance of a harmonious, healthy work climate free from all forms of harassment," Judge Alain Roy from Quebec's Municipal Commission said in a decision released last week.
