Wawa Municipal Council's calling on Algoma-Manitoulin MPP Michael Mantha to step down.
In their meeting last night, Council passed a resolution calling for Mantha's resignation - citing a third party investigation launched by the Ontario NDP which substantiated allegations of sexual harassment and misconduct against him, and saying he must be held to a higher standard as an MPP.
The idea came up in the September 3rd Committee of the Whole meeting, at the request of multiple local residents, who cited the allegations, and Mayor Melanie Pilon emphasized it was about accountability.
Chapleau Town Council expressed their distaste with Mantha in a resolution passed last month, saying he was not welcome on Township property.
