KITCHENER A Centre Wellington councillor has been stripped of his deputy mayor title for his anti-lockdown views. Tempers flared in a Monday night council meeting as politicians debated the price their colleague councillor Steven VanLeeuwen would pay for his anti-lockdown views. Ultimately, council decided to strip VanLeeuwen of his deputy mayor title. All council members agreed that VanLeeuwen’s views are not consistent with the message they are trying to send the public and they agreed he should be removed as the deputy mayor. However, a debate over whether to do it immediately or take it to the integrity commissioner first caused the fireworks.
