Ep.62 - When Your Councillor Spams You on Facebook
Manage episode 159979709 series 70516
What do you do if you think a city councillor is exploiting his public platform to make money on the side?
Listener Matt Alexander emailed us with this quandary. He points out that Greater Sudbury Councillor Robert Kirwan takes money from local businesses to write promotional posts for a Facebook group he runs. This raises a lot of questions for Matt, but he doesn't know what to do about it.
We look into Matt's complaint and how potential conflicts like this one are dealt with.
