I suppose evalina could set Councillor Wendy up to introduce a possible Code violation but Wendy has a few apologies of her own to make to staff and Council members.

Once upon a time, Aurora had a Code of Righteous Conduct and before that A Code Of Ethics.
Also, two Integrity Commissioners were appointed to give substance to The Code
.
The first was stripped of his authority because he did not understand what was required of him by the group of six.
The second one understood very well what was required.
His contract was terminated by the new council.
Last week, I heard many municipalities have discovered the shortcomings and ommissions of provincial legislation as it applies to Codes of Conducts and their unintended result.
They have decided to throw off the rod they created..
Though I doubt there is a story out there to match our own, it seems Codes of Conduct are going the way of the dodo bird at the lower level of government.
And so they should.
If anyone ever decides to write it, it will be an ignominious chapter of our municipal history.
