The municipal election is still months away, but the competition for the coveted council and mayoral seats has already begun with the announcement of the first candidate in the municipal race, Tyran Ault.
October’s election will mark Ault’s second bid for a seat on council – he lost by a narrow margin to Colleen Tatum and Christine Burton in last June’s by-election. Ault says that the loss far from dampened his spirits – if anything, he says, the defeat made him realize just how much he wants to sit on council.
