Not the full picture. Built from public records, which leave things out.Read by hand, Oct 2026DetailsThis is built from public records, which leave a lot out, and some of it may be wrong or out of date. Check the sources, and tell us if you spot a mistake. What this site can't tell you
Read by hand. We read Dorion's own documents for this site in October 2026; the Sources page lists which ones. The comparisons with other places still come from the Province's yearly reports.

Council

Who decides, and how you can hold them to account

Dorion is run by an elected council of 5 people. They set the budget, approve big purchases and hire the senior staff who run the town day to day.

Current council

Names and official email addresses from the town's council page. None of the members lists a public social media account there.

How open is Dorion?

What a resident can find online without asking, as of October 7, 2026.

    Budgets posted online

    The Finance page has a heading called "Budgets" but no budget document under it. We did not find a 2025 or 2026 budget anywhere on the site. Source

    Audited financial statements

    Statements for 2016 to 2024 are posted. The 2024 statements carry an auditor's report dated September 16, 2025, and carry a qualified opinion. We did not find 2025 statements. The 2022, 2023 and 2024 statements are qualified. Source

    Council pay and expenses (s. 284)

    A March 4, 2025 agenda lists a report on the statement of remuneration and expenses paid in 2024, but we did not find the statement itself posted. Source

    Meeting agendas and minutes

    Agendas are posted for 2025. Minutes are posted for 2021, 2022, 2025 and 2026. We did not find minutes for 2023 or 2024 on the page. The 2025 and 2026 minutes are scanned images with no readable text, so we did not read them. Source

    Integrity Commissioner and closed meeting reports

    We did not find any on the pages we read. Source

How to raise a concern

From the gentlest step to the most serious. Start at the top.

  1. Integrity Commissioner and closed meeting investigator

    We did not find a page naming either officer, or any report from them, on the Township's website pages we read.

  2. 2022 election financial statements

    The Township has a page of 2022 election financials with one file for each of the five current council members. We did not open the files.
