McNab/Braeside mayor Mark MacKenzie says he disputes the findings of the township's integrity commissioner, and is asking for a review by the Office of the Ontario Ombudsman.

The mayor of a township west of Ottawa who was suspended for aggressive and abusive behaviour late last year says he's now suspending himself from activities related to his job.McNab/Braeside Mayor Mark MacKenzie disputed the findings of the township's integrity commissioner, but in December was handed a 60-day suspension without pay.

That suspension has ended and MacKenzie is back on the payroll, but two weeks ago he announced his "self-imposed suspension."MacKenzie appeared virtually during a planning meeting last week despite his self-imposed suspension. MacKenzie calls the vote a "sort of last chance" before he makes his grievances public in a blog post, and he disagreed that his "self-suspension" has left the township and its residents in limbo.

A resident of McNabb/Braeside for some 35 years, Christine Lacasse fears the current political situation has left the township with no leadership.
