It looks like Dave Ryan, the city’s longest serving mayor, was re-elected by a large margin, according to unofficial election results. Ryan was originally elected to the mayor’s office in 2003. He was being challenged by former councillor and NDP candidate for the region, Eileen Higdon, and two community members, Bert Cortez and Wesley Henry.
