Four candidates are hoping to unseat Al McDonald as mayor of North Bay.
The two-term mayor, who had previously campaigned for provincial and federal seats, won by a landslide in both the 2010 and 2014 municipal elections. Out of McDonald’s 2018 challengers, only one is a sitting city councillor.
Meanwhile, 26 candidates are vying for North Bay’s 10 council seats. Only one sitting city councillor isn’t seeking re-election.
