Valerie Critchley, CAO, answered my request to provide the members’ names and dates of each of their swearing in:

Mayor Prue – November 8^th, 2022
Deputy Mayor Gibb – November 8^th, 2022
Councillor Allaire – November 10^th, 2022

Councillor Pouget – November 10^th, 2022
Councillor McArthur – November 14^th, 2022

She added, ‘Please note that regardless of the date on which a member makes their declaration of Office the Municipal Act provides that they do not take office until the statutorily appointed date being November 15^th.’

However, not all councillors believe that they were sworn in nor will they be until the November 28, 2022 ceremony at the McGregor Columbian Club at 6:00 p.m.
