Hurricane Hazel Gets Caught?

Mississauga mayor failed to declare verbally a conflict of interest over son's $14M land deal

Video of a Mississauga council meeting on May 21, 2008, shows that Mayor Hazel McCallion did not verbally declare a conflict of interest, despite minutes that state she did.

That discrepancy is now being investigated by city clerk Crystal Greer, after Councillor Carolyn Parrish raised the issue at yesterday's council meeting.
