Halifax mayor under investigation for allegedly breaching municipal code of conduct
At least 2 people complained Fillmore’s comments about CAO role were misleading
The mayor of Halifax is being investigated for possibly breaking the city's code of conduct, after an independent consultant decided complaints he had misled the public about governance at city hall had merit.
On July 22, Mayor Andy Fillmore told CBC's Maritime Noon he would welcome so-called "strong mayor powers" if granted by the province. Fillmore said they are needed because the chief administrative officer holds the most power in the current municipal structure, and he reports to the CAO.
Multiple councillors — and current CAO Cathie O'Toole — immediately refuted that statement. In fact, they said, the CAO reports to council, which includes the mayor.
"I felt that was a pretty egregious thing for him to say," Halifax resident Jillian Banfield said Tuesday.
As a "longtime follower of municipal politics" and former bicycle mayor of Halifax, Banfield said she knew right away Fillmore's comments were wrong.

investigation. (CBC)
"It is kind of a [President Donald] Trump tactic to just say something, and keep saying it until people, you know, think that it's true," Banfield said.
She is one of two people who told CBC News they complained to the Halifax municipality that Fillmore's comments misled the public, breaking a section of the municipal code of conduct for elected officials.
Peter Linfield of Halifax, the second complainant, said he was concerned Fillmore's comments were designed to "spread misinformation" about how council works to bolster his argument for strong mayor powers by describing constraints "that may or may not exist" around the mayor's office.
Fillmore said in a joint statement with O'Toole a few days after his radio comments that while the CAO does report to council, the Halifax organizational chart shows the Office of the Mayor falls under the CAO's business unit.

Linfield said that response was a "dodge," and not a proper apology from Fillmore.
"If that's what he meant, how is that a point of conversation that's worth discussing in light of strong mayor powers?" Linfield said.
"I don't think it's totally, you know, genuine and I don't think it really addresses the underlying concern there."
Both Banfield and Linfield said they received an email last Friday to inform them an external investigator had reviewed their complaints and decided they have merit.
"As a result, a formal investigation is required," said the email addressed to Linfield, which was shared with CBC.

of a CAO within municipal politics is misleading and breaks the city's
code of conduct. (Haley Ryan/CBC)
The email said Tanya Tynski of MC Advisory will conduct the investigation. MC Advisory is a firm offering various services on human resources issues and workplace investigations that is based in Halifax and affiliated with the McInnes Cooper law firm, according to its website.
Halifax's website said the municipality uses both MC Advisory and Atlantic Workplace Investigations & Consulting as third-party investigators into complaints on a rotational basis.
Although Halifax had a code of conduct for elected officials for years, it recently adopted the new provincewide rules imposed by the provincial government in 2024. The province said a streamlined approach was needed for all municipalities to work under the same expectations for behaviour and investigations.
The code said an investigator's report must come back to council within six months of a complaint, which would be January 2026 dating from a late-July complaint.
Halifax councillors will discuss the issue in private and make a decision, but council must state publicly what section of the code relates to the complaint, the investigator's recommendations and whether they are imposing any sanctions.
Those consequences could include an apology letter, a fine of up to $1,000, public censure or removal from municipal committees for a few months.
Both Linfield and Banfield said they would like to see an apology from Fillmore about his comments, at the very least.
"Whatever mechanism is most effective … to produce, you know, a mayor who kind of takes his responsibility and the power bestowed upon him more seriously," said Banfield.
Other complaints reported
The Halifax Examiner also reported Tuesday that a code of conduct complaint was made about Fillmore's decision to end a town hall meeting in Cole Harbour on Aug. 25 after people raised concerns about council's Aug. 19 decision to grant money for the upcoming Davis Cup tie in Halifax between Team Canada and Israel.
That complaint has also resulted in an investigation by Tynski, the Examiner said.
CBC News requested a comment from Fillmore's office, but did not receive a response by deadline.
Jake Fulton, a Halifax municipal spokesperson, said Tuesday the city could not confirm whether any investigation has begun "due to the personal nature of the Code of Conduct investigations."
Personal information is protected under the Municipal Government Act and the code of conduct regulations, Fulton said, which states that the investigator must protect the confidentiality of those involved in a complaint or investigation.
Details of formal complaints are made publicly available online after regional council has made its decision, Fulton said.
Corrections
- An earlier version of this story said Linfield and Banfield received emails from the Halifax municipal clerk's office confirming an investigation into Fillmore's comments had begun. In fact, the emails came from the external investigator's office.Sep 03, 2025 11:16 AM ADT
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Halifax Regional Council appoints acting Chief Administrative Officer
Le texte en français suit.
Halifax Regional Council has appointed Brad Anguish as the acting Chief Administrative Officer (A/CAO) of the Halifax Regional Municipality. Mr. Anguish assumes his new responsibilities as A/CAO on Sept. 8, 2025.
“We are at a pivotal point for the future of the municipality,” says Mayor Andy Fillmore. “Mr. Anguish’s long history of public service, including at the executive level of many of our operational business units will ensure the delivery of many major projects and initiatives under his leadership.”
Mr. Anguish brings a wealth of organizational knowledge to this role as the longest serving member of the Executive Leadership Team and more than 22 years of public service with the municipality. He’s held a variety of roles over his career, including Commissioner of Operations, Executive Director of Public Works and Executive Director of Parks & Recreation.
He has also led several major projects for the municipality such as the Harbour Clean Up and Cogswell District project.
“I want to thank Mayor Fillmore and Regional Council for this opportunity,” says Brad Anguish. “I’m looking forward to working together with Council and senior leadership to advance our priorities and deliver excellent municipal services for our residents.”
Mr. Anguish is certified as a Professional Engineer, with a Diploma in Engineering Sciences from CEGEP St-Jean, PQ, a Bachelor of Engineering from the Royal Military College of Canada, Kingston, ON, and a Master of Business Administration from St. Mary’s University, Halifax, NS.
As A/CAO, he will assume full authority on Sept. 8, 2025, and will delegate duties to the former CAO, Cathie O’Toole, as required. This will allow transition time while Mr. Anguish backfills the vacant Commissioner of Operations role and enables Ms. O’Toole to continue focusing on advancing key priorities in support of the A/CAO.
Ms. O’Toole’s last day with the municipality will be Friday, Oct. 17, 2025, after over 25 years of public service. She has served as Chief Administrative Officer since January 2023.
The permanent CAO recruitment process will not begin until there is more clarity from the Province of Nova Scotia regarding possible legislative changes that will impact the role.
As the senior administrator for the municipality, the CAO oversees a municipal budget of over $1 billion and a team of approximately 5,000 employees.
Le Conseil régional d’Halifax nomme un directeur municipal par intérim
Mercredi 3 septembre 2025 (Halifax, N.-É.) - Le Conseil régional d’Halifax a nommé Brad Anguish au poste de directeur municipal par intérim de la Municipalité régionale d’Halifax. M. Anguish assumera ses nouvelles responsabilités à compter du 8 septembre 2025.
« Nous sommes à un moment décisif pour l’avenir de la municipalité, a déclaré le maire Andy Fillmore. La vaste expérience de M. Anguish au sein de la fonction publique, y compris plusieurs années à des fonctions de direction dans nos unités opérationnelles, garantira la réalisation de nombreux projets et initiatives importants sous sa direction. »
M. Anguish apporte à ce rôle une riche connaissance de l’administration municipale, en tant que membre le plus ancien de l’équipe de direction et fort de plus de 22 ans de service public au sein de la municipalité. Il a occupé divers postes au cours de sa carrière, notamment ceux de commissaire aux opérations, de directeur exécutif des travaux publics et de directeur exécutif des parcs et loisirs.
Il a également dirigé plusieurs projets importants pour la municipalité, comme le projet de nettoyage du port et le projet du district de Cogswell.
« Je tiens à remercier le maire Fillmore et le Conseil régional de m’offrir cette occasion, a déclaré Brad Anguish. J’ai hâte de travailler avec le Conseil et la haute direction pour faire progresser nos priorités et offrir d’excellents services municipaux à nos résidents. »
M. Anguish est ingénieur professionnel agréé. Il détient un diplôme en sciences de l’ingénierie du Cégep Saint-Jean (Québec), un baccalauréat en génie du Collège militaire royal du Canada, à Kingston (Ontario), ainsi qu’une maîtrise en administration des affaires de l’Université Saint Mary’s, à Halifax (Nouvelle-Écosse).
Il entrera en poste à titre de directeur municipal par intérim à compter du 8 septembre 2025 et déléguera des tâches à l’ancienne directrice municipale, Cathie O’Toole, au besoin. Cela permettra une période de transition pendant que M. Anguish assure l’intérim au poste vacant de commissaire aux opérations, et permettra à Mme O’Toole de continuer à se concentrer sur l’avancement des priorités clés, à l’appui du directeur municipal par intérim.
La dernière journée de travail de Mme O’Toole à la municipalité sera le vendredi 17 octobre 2025, après plus de 25 ans de service public. Elle occupe le poste de directrice municipale depuis janvier 2023.
Le processus de recrutement visant à doter le poste permanent de directeur municipal ne commencera pas tant que la province de la Nouvelle-Écosse n’aura pas clarifié les changements législatifs susceptibles d’avoir une incidence sur ce rôle.
En tant que plus haut responsable administratif de la municipalité, le directeur municipal supervise un budget de plus d’un milliard de dollars et une équipe d’environ 5 000 employés.

Halifax CAO resigning in part because of strong mayor powers: ‘It’s a tough job’
Top HRM staffer Cathie O’Toole is the first female chief administrative officer in HRM’s history
Strong mayor powers, and what that might mean for her role, had something to do with Cathie O’Toole handing in her notice.
The first female chief administrative officer (CAO) for HRM, the top staff job at city hall, told council this week she will be leaving the role she started in January 2023.
In an interview with reporters Thursday, O’Toole was asked if the potential for instituting strong mayor powers, which would give the mayor direct authority over senior staff, had anything to do with her decision.
“That was only one factor, you know, and there’s been other changes to the CAO role even since I’ve become CAO,” she said.
One of those changes was delegating the authority to CAOs to fulfil a quasi-judicial function to discharge private covenants on private property, she said.
“So this whole strong mayor thing, although, you know, it adds a little bit of uncertainty, stress and anxiety, it’s not something I’m worried about. We haven’t even seen, you know, what that might look like.”
Under any structure
There are some aspects of strong mayor powers that have worked well in other municipalities, she added. She gave examples of streamlining some administrative processes or opportunities to resolve deadlocks on decisions.
“If there’s an overarching urgency around a provincial priority, for example, it may enable something to move through a system more quickly,” she said.

HRM, talk about plans for 2023 during an interview at city hall on Jan.

“What I think is important to remember is that if the municipality is functioning effectively, it can accomplish the objectives that council sets based under any structure.”
Coun. Sam Austin (Dartmouth Centre) said CAO is probably the most important job in the municipality.
“It’s important to have someone of high calibre who can do the role with integrity and dedication, and I think we very much had that with Cathie O’Toole,” he said Thursday.
He added that he’s worried about what the appointment process would be like for the next CAO if strong mayor powers were instituted.
The next CAO
Hiring a CAO is an extensive process. O’Toole said the candidate will need to have people skills as well as technical skills because “the administration, the mayor and council need to work really, really well together.”
Having good communication skills is key because the CAO needs to get people in a room and have difficult conversations, she said.
“It’s a 24-7 job, it’s a tough job, you have to be willing to put in the time, the commitment and deal with the pressure of dealing with emergencies,” she said.
“And no matter what decision you make or what action you take, it’s never going to be well received by everyone. You have to be OK with operating in that kind of environment and taking that kind of scrutiny.”
She said it’s not good for anyone’s health and wellness to do the job for a long period.
What’s next?
At 53, O’Toole said she has a lot of life left in her. She said she likes going home and feeling that she did some good and contributes to the community.
“So I think it’s very unlikely you’ll see me pop up in the private sector, maybe in another public sector role or a not-for-profit or something like that.”
O’Toole said she’s not sure about her last day, but it will be sometime in October “and I’ll be officially a retiree on January second.”
Halifax councillors decry 'misinformation' from mayor, saying it undermines public trust
Mayor, CAO say changes are needed to 'clarify' their roles within the municipal structure
Halifax mayor accused of spreading misinformation on his roleSome Halifax councillors say Mayor Andy Fillmore's comments about the roles of mayor and the city's top bureaucrat are disconcerting and amount to "misinformation."
Mayor Fillmore has said the current municipal structure is blocking him from fixing issues he was elected to work on, like traffic congestion and affordability.
To address that, Fillmore told CBC's Maritime Noon on Tuesday he would welcome so-called "strong mayor powers" if granted by the province, which would allow him to hire and fire the chief administrative officer for Halifax.
"The CAO holds the power. In our organizational chart, I report to the CAO," Fillmore said.
But multiple councillors — and the current CAO — immediately refuted that statement.
"I think it's always unfortunate when people spread misinformation, particularly someone who's supposed to be a trusted public figure," Coun. Patty Cuttell said Thursday.
"It confuses the public. And I think it drives polarization and really does a disservice to the governance of our city."
In an email sent Wednesday to the mayor and council, obtained by CBC News, CAO Cathie O'Toole said she wanted to offer "factually correct information" on the issue, saying she had been contacted by multiple people about Fillmore's comments.
"The mayor is part of regional council. The CAO reports to mayor and council, per the employment contract. The mayor does not report to the CAO. The CAO does not 'hold the power' — mayor and council do," O'Toole wrote.
If a CAO is not carrying out regional council's priorities and direction, O'Toole said, they can be fired with, or without cause, "relatively quickly."
Cuttell said the new mayor and council, who were all elected in the October 2024 municipal election, are in the midst of setting their strategic priorities for 2026-2030. She said that is the opportunity for the mayor, or any councillor, to bring up an important issue that can be baked into policies and plans for years to come.

Fillmore's comments that he reports to the CAO, which is not accurate. (David Laughlin/CBC)
Coun. Janet Steele said she was "very surprised and disappointed" to hear Fillmore's comments. She said they came with "implied criticism" of O'Toole, who she said has been a strong and effective public servant.
"The CAO is there to speak truth to power. They are to provide us with fearless advice," Steele said.
"That is why I'm so opposed to the concept of strong mayor power. If the CAO is hired exclusively by the mayor … then we won't be receiving the best advice. We may be receiving that council advice that goes through a filter that the office of the mayor uses."
Steele, a first-term councillor, said she does not understand why Fillmore doesn't understand the structure of municipal government after working as a Halifax planner for years before jumping to federal politics.
Premier Tim Houston has said the province is exploring whether strong mayor powers make sense for Halifax, because there is a "serious disconnect" between council decisions being made and the desires of citizens.
Houston and the municipal affairs minister have not said what those powers might entail. The model is used across the United States, and the recent Ontario approach allows mayors to set a budget and make decisions without a majority of council.
"I think it's really unfortunate that we're having all this drama over this issue. And I feel like we've been hijacked a bit by the mayor and by the premier weighing in," Steele said.
When asked about the training new mayor and councillors receive, a spokesperson with the Halifax municipality said there was an orientation period following the October 2024 election which included an overview of roles, responsibilities and governance.
The orientation included a two-day session last November led by the province's Department of Municipal Affairs and supported by municipal staff.
"Either the mayor is not understanding his job, or he's deliberately misleading people, and either one is terrible," said Coun. Kathryn Morse.
Other councillors, including Deputy Mayor Tony Mancini and Coun. Sam Austin, said Thursday they appreciate the independence of the CAO's office and are concerned about Fillmore's comments causing public confusion.
Austin and Steele said Fillmore should issue a public retraction of his comments about the CAO's role.

Instead, O'Toole and Fillmore said in a joint statement released Thursday evening that they welcome "healthy debate" and are committed to working together with council and staff to put the needs of Halifax residents first.
The statement said that "governance clarity is essential," and while the CAO does report to regional council, the Halifax organizational chart shows the Office of the Mayor under the CAO's business unit.
The mayor's office includes various employees and staff members, and a recent advertisement said the office was hiring for a policy advisor, communications co-ordinator, and council relations and community liaison position.
"We agree that further revisions to the organizational chart are required to clarify appropriate relationships between mayor, council and administrative accountability without compromising the democratic mandate of the mayor and council in the municipal structure," the statement said.
In her email to council, O'Toole said that historically the mayor's office budget fell under the CAO's unit with the other offices related to "city hall/administration" because of the preference of previous mayors.

2025 organizational chart for Halifax shows that the CAO reports to
regional council, which includes the mayor. The mayor's office, made up
of various staff members, falls under the CAO business unit which is
shown in the sixth column from left. (Halifax Regional Municipality)
O'Toole said the administration "has not been curtailing or limiting anything the mayor's office has been trying to do."
She suggested that as of Sept. 1, 2026, the mayor's office should be shown as a separate and independent office in the organization chart similar to the city's auditor general, to "remove any possible friction or perception of friction between the CAO's office and mayor's office."
"Regardless of whether strong-mayor powers proceeds or not, this will clarify accountability and align with how some other Canadian cities structure their organization," O'Toole wrote.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Appointment of Cathie O'Toole as Vice‑President Finance and Administration
Staff - July 30, 2025
On Wednesday (July 30), Dalhousie announced the appointment of Cathie O’Toole as the university’s next Vice-President Finance and Administration.
O’Toole joins Dalhousie following a distinguished career in the public sector, most recently as the Chief Administrative Officer of the Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM). As the city’s top civil servant, she supported a municipal workforce of more than 4,500 in delivering key programs and services across the municipality. Prior to that, she served as General Manager and CEO of Halifax Water and as HRM’s Chief Financial Officer — just two of several significant leadership roles held during her 25 years with the municipality.
O’Toole completed her Bachelor of Arts here at Dalhousie and is also a graduate of King’s Foundation Year Program. She holds an MBA from Laurentian University and is a Chartered Professional Accountant who has been recognized as a Fellow of the Chartered Professional Accountants (FCPA) of Nova Scotia. She currently sits on the Board of Directors of Efficiency One and the Property Valuation Services Corporation and serves in a volunteer capacity with the Institute of Public Administration.
"As a proud graduate of Dalhousie University, I am excited to join the executive leadership team at a time when there are some complex financial challenges,” says O’Toole. “I look forward to seeing how I can contribute to achievement of Dalhousie's mission and am committed to approaching each challenge and opportunity in a manner that promotes interdisciplinary collaboration and mutual respect."
President Kim Brooks said in an announcement to faculty and staff that O’Toole’s experience is an ideal fit for Dalhousie at a time when the university is striving to be smarter and more strategic in delivering administrative services and supports and when facing headwinds in efforts to grow Dal’s financial resources and pursue campus development.
“Cathie’s career has proven how collaborative, collegial leadership is possible in complex environments and when facing challenging circumstances, making her ideally suited to taking on this important portfolio at a critical time,” said President Brooks.
O’Toole’s appointment is set to begin on October 20. She follows Gitta Kulczycki in the vice-president’s role, whose upcoming retirement was announced to the Dal community earlier this year.

Ray Adlington named to CBA Board of Directors
May 2, 2017
Halifax partner Ray Adlington was recently named to the CBA Board of Directors.
In their announcement yesterday the CBA advised that the board would
come into effect September 1st, 2017.
After collecting extensive input over the past two years, we know
that CBA members believe it’s important for the organization to have a
Board of Directors that reflects the diversity of the legal
profession, including a mix of practice types, experience, skills,
geography and more.
Our new Board of Directors exemplifies this principle.
The board is composed from one member from each province as well as
the CBA President.
Congratulations Ray on this well deserved appointment.
Date: 20151223
Docket: T-1557-15
Fredericton, New Brunswick, December 23, 2015
PRESENT: The Honourable Mr. Justice Bell
BETWEEN:
DAVID RAYMOND AMOS
Plaintiff
and
HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
Defendant
ORDER
(Delivered orally from the Bench in Fredericton, New Brunswick, on
December 14, 2015)
The Plaintiff seeks an appeal de novo, by way of motion pursuant to
the Federal Courts Rules (SOR/98-106), from an Order made on November
12, 2015, in which Prothonotary Morneau struck the Statement of Claim
in its entirety.
At the outset of the hearing, the Plaintiff brought to my attention a
letter dated September 10, 2004, which he sent to me, in my then
capacity as Past President of the New Brunswick Branch of the Canadian
Bar Association, and the then President of the Branch, Kathleen Quigg,
(now a Justice of the New Brunswick Court of Appeal). In that letter
he stated:
As for your past President, Mr. Bell, may I suggest that you check the
work of Frank McKenna before I sue your entire law firm including you.
You are your brother’s keeper.
Frank McKenna is the former Premier of New Brunswick and a former
colleague of mine at the law firm of McInnes Cooper. In addition to
expressing an intention to sue me, the Plaintiff refers to a number of
people in his Motion Record who he appears to contend may be witnesses
or potential parties to be added. Those individuals who are known to
me personally, include, but are not limited to the former Prime
Minister of Canada, The Right Honourable Stephen Harper; former
Attorney General of Canada and now a Justice of the Manitoba Court of
Queen’s Bench, Vic Toews; former member of Parliament Rob Moore;
former Director of Policing Services, the late Grant Garneau; former
Chief of the Fredericton Police Force, Barry McKnight; former Staff
Sergeant Danny Copp; my former colleagues on the New Brunswick Court
of Appeal, Justices Bradley V. Green and Kathleen Quigg, and, retired
Assistant Commissioner Wayne Lang of the Royal Canadian Mounted
Police.
In the circumstances, given the threat in 2004 to sue me in my
personal capacity and my past and present relationship with many
potential witnesses and/or potential parties to the litigation, I am
of the view there would be a reasonable apprehension of bias should I
hear this motion. See Justice de Grandpré’s dissenting judgment in
Committee for Justice and Liberty et al v National Energy Board et al,
[1978] 1 SCR 369 at p 394 for the applicable test regarding
allegations of bias. In the circumstances, although neither party has
requested I recuse myself, I consider it appropriate that I do so.
AS A RESULT OF MY RECUSAL, THIS COURT ORDERS that the Administrator of
the Court schedule another date for the hearing of the motion. There
is no order as to costs.
“B. Richard Bell”
Judge

Councillor's way of proposing change violated conduct code, investigator says
Strait Shores council asked for investigation after feeling disrespected by newest member
Strait
Shores, a rural community southeast of Moncton, got an investigator to
look into whether Coun. Andy MacGregor violated the municipal code of
conduct. (Sam Farley/CBC)An investigation into Strait Shores Coun. Andy MacGregor, who was only allowed at two council meetings before being banished from municipal property, has found he violated the council code of conduct.
In his decision, the investigator said MacGregor needs training in how to be a councillor and should take part in mediation with his colleagues.
MacGregor won a January byelection in the rural municipality southeast of Moncton.
But he rubbed his fellow councillors and municipal staff the wrong way with his questions and his proposed changes in how things are done at the municipality, according to the investigator's report.
MacGregor has said he joined council to promote transparency, so he introduced motions that included having meeting minutes and documents posted quickly.
What followed were resignations by two councillors and by the mayor, Jason Stokes, who issued a blistering letter calling MacGregor the "town bully." The two councillors later rescinded their resignations, although one has since resigned again.
The remaining councillors, through a motion, then ordered MacGregor to stay away from municipal property, staff and fellow councillors while an investigator looked into whether his behaviour violated the code of conduct.
The investigation was conducted by Rollie King of MC Advisory, which describes itself on its website as a human resources advisory firm affiliated with McInnes Cooper, a law firm.
A sanctioned councillor in Strait Shores violated code of conduct, report findsIn the report, which CBC obtained, King said he interviewed all councillors, MacGregor, municipal CAO Donna Hipditch and clerk Angela Grant. Stokes declined to participate.
King said most of the staff accusations against MacGregor were about his behaviour before he joined council, chiefly about his asking questions and his demanding requests for information. Staff said the volume of requests and MacGregor's behaviour hurt their health.
King said this was important context, although his job was to consider accusations made about MacGregor's official time as a councillor.
King wrote that members of council, whom he didn't name, felt MacGregor demonstrated a lack of respect toward them, had an agenda and was aggressive.
King did not include any examples of this or any proof of the accusations against MacGregor.
CBC News requested an interview with Local Government Minister Aaron Kennedy, or anyone from his department who could speak to the problems at Strait Shores, one of the new municipalities created in 2023 under local governance reform.
Department spokesperson Jennifer MacNeil denied this request but sent an email saying the department is "aware of ongoing governance and administrative challenges" affecting Strait Shores.
"As stated previously, the department remains committed to providing advice, guidance and additional training and support opportunities to all local governments," MacNeil said, without including specifics.
Was councillor sanctioned?
In finding that MacGregor broke the code of conduct rules, King highlighted the councillor's speech about his proposed changes as an example of disrespectful behaviour.
King found MacGregor has an agenda and his behaviour did not promote a spirit of co-operation. He added that he feels MacGregor "holds some animosity" toward the CAO.
King also wrote that he does not believe council was actually sanctioning MacGregor when it voted to bar him from meetings.
"Councillor MacGregor was, in my words, 'sent home' until the investigation was complete," King wrote. "This is common in workplace type of complaints."
MacGregor received a copy of the report late Wednesday. The report was done by Rollie King of MC Advisory. (Sam Farley/CBC)
MacGregor has shared an email with CBC News that he received from the Local Government Commission, which described the sanctions he received as a "suspension."
Municipal government experts have questioned the legality of those sanctions because they were different from the list of allowed sanctions in the Strait Shores council code of conduct. They were also handed down before the investigation was completed.
King recommended that all members of staff and council participate in a "facilitated" mediation.
"I observed a fractured relationship between Councillor MacGregor and council and staff. It is my view that it is repairable."
King ended by saying MacGregor clearly has a passion for improving local governance.
"It is my opinion that it was completely misguided and his approach was doomed to fail," King wrote.
"His objectives for stronger governance are laudable. His methods to achieve it were not."
When reached by phone Thursday, King declined an interview, directing questions to the municipality. CBC News requested an interview with Annamarie Boyd, the acting mayor, but did not get a response.
Councillor stands by actions
In an interview, MacGregor said the investigation process felt fair, but he stands by his actions. He said he "respectfully disagrees" with the characterization that his conduct amounted to bullying and harassment.
Before joining council, MacGregor said, he asked for things such as meeting minutes or documents that hadn't been posted on the website. He also said he filed several right to information requests with the municipality.
"I never demanded anything, he said. "Asking for something multiple times — I mean, is that a demand, or just persistence?"
He also took issue with the investigator's finding that he was acting with an agenda.
"I'm speaking on behalf of the people. This isn't my objective, right? I mean, I'm just the messenger here, this is the people of Straight Shores' agenda. This is what they want."
Next step not clear
King's report makes no mention of allowing MacGregor back to council.
The sanctions MacGregor received in February said they were in effect "until such time as an investigation is complete."
It's also unclear if the council can even accept the report.
Coun. Stacy Jones has resigned for a second time, and her name and contact have been removed from the municipal website. The council, which normally has five members, including the mayor, is now down to three, including MacGregor and the acting mayor.

That leaves Coun. Tanya Haynes, left, Acting Mayor Annamarie Boyd,
centre right, and MacGregor, who is not allowed to attend council
meetings. (Chad Ingraham/CBC)
Although MacGregor is barred from participating in meetings, Oley said he is still a member of the council, which requires a quorum of three.
"There is a difference between a council having quorum and the same council having the necessary quorum for a meeting," Oley said.
CBC has asked both the CAO and municipal clerk for clarification on when MacGregor will be allowed back, but there's been no response.
Strait Shores council's April neeting was cancelled because the municipal office had to move one building over. The next meeting would be in May.
"So it's kind of odd," MacGregor said. "We have quorum, but we don't have quorum. What we have here is a non-functioning council.
"We can't make any decisions. Council can't even get together to accept this report, and they can't even act on the report because they need me there to do that."
MacGregor said he still has complaints lodged with the province's ombud and the Local Governance Commission, which is not an appeal body, and must wait until a council's investigation into conduct allegations is complete before starting its own.
Mary Oley, the Local Governance Commission director, confirmed in an email April 3 to MacGregor that the commission "is aware of the resignation of former councillor Stacey Jones." But in an email to CBC News on April 10, Oley said the commission "has not been officially advised that a councillor has resigned from Strait Shores."
"In order for the LGC to be officially aware of a vacancy, we must be advised by Elections NB after they have received notification of the vacancy from the local government. To date, we have not received such a notification from Elections NB for Strait Shores."
