Chirico must resign, CAO fired, says citizen behind exposing spending scandal

Call for Resignation and Termination Amidst Spending Scandal

A citizen's efforts to expose a spending scandal have led to a growing backlash against North Bay Mayor Peter Chirico and CAO John Severino.

Following the release of an Integrity Commissioner report, many are criticizing the lack of accountability for questionable spending practices. Keven Ferris, who filed Freedom of Information requests alongside Nicole Peltier, expressed disappointment but not surprise at the report's findings.

Giorno gave the mayor the most generous interpretation of the code of conduct that he could have. It doesn't even admonish the mayor.

Ferris and others are now calling for Chirico to resign and for CAO Severino, who approved the expenses, to be fired.

Author's summary: Citizen demands mayor's resignation.
