Andrew LeBlanc is serving his first term as Mayor after being elected to the position in May 2021. He was first elected as Councillor-at-Large in May 2012 and again in 2016 and was elected Deputy Mayor in May 2020. His years of work in the nonprofit sector with youth and families and his desire to help create a sound strategy for long-term growth are what motivated him to run for public office.
