Integrity Commissioner finds Grimsby Councillor violated Code of Conduct

A long-standing confrontation between Grimsby Mayor Jeff Jordan and Councillor Veronica Charrois reached its climax over the past two weeks following the release of a report from Integrity Commissioner Michael L. Maynard, who found that Charrois violated the Council Code of Conduct when she questioned Jordan’s association with Harley Valentine of Castlepoint Numa, a Toronto-based real estate development company, during a council session last year.

While the incident in question took place this past November, the background of the issue can be traced back as far as two years ago.
