Quesnel City Council - Regular Meeting on Tuesday, November 5th at 6pm in Quesnel Council Chambers (4th Floor, 410 Kinchant St).  On the Agenda:

Editor's Note -- according to the minutes of the October 29th Quesnel City Council meeting, Quesnel City Councillor Ron Paull was expelled, and refused to leave, by Quesnel Mayor Bob Simpson from this meeting for his conduct during discussion on exploring of webcasting of Quesnel City Council meetings but of course, we don't know thus far what specific circumstances led to Mayor Simpson to ordering Councillor Paull out of that City Council meeting . Generally speaking - in such circumstances of being expelled (order to leave) from a local government meeting (whether the member obeyed the directive or not)  - the Mayor of a municipality normally would proceed to revoke an municipal council appointment to show disappointment in that Councillor's performance.  It is extremely rare to be expelled and to openly defy an order of the Mayor or the presiding member to leave a municipal council meeting

* Mayoral Appointment for 2020 -- Acting Mayor & Co-Chair of North Cariboo Joint Committee
