Read by hand. We read McNab-Braeside'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

McNab-Braeside 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

  • Deputy MayorScott Brum
  • CouncillorKevin Rosien
  • CouncillorRobert Campbell
  • CouncillorJill Campbell

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 McNab-Braeside?

What a resident can find online without asking, as of October 5, 2026.

  • Partly
    Budgets posted online

    The Finance page posts a one-page "2026 Budget Summary", the 2026 final tax rates and a residential impact sheet. We did not find a full budget book. The one-page summary does not read cleanly in text form, so we did not use its figures. A page for the 2027 budget ("Budget Engagement 2027") says the budget is complete and links a short overview.

  • Yes
    Audited financial statements

    The 2025 statements are posted. The auditor (Mackillican & Associates) gives a clean opinion ("present fairly"), signed September 15, 2026. The Finance page links only the 2025 statements; the 2024 figures appear beside them as comparisons. Source

  • Partly
    Council pay and expenses (s. 284)

    The Township posts quarterly Council and CAO expense reports for 2023, 2024 and 2025 (the 2025 page links first and second quarters only). They are spreadsheet printouts whose columns do not read reliably as text, so we did not use them. We did not find the yearly statement of remuneration and expenses that the Municipal Act asks for.

  • Yes
    Meeting minutes

    Council minutes are posted as PDFs on the Township's own site for 2025 and, on the 2026 page, through the June 2, 2026 regular meeting. Source

  • Unknown
    Meeting agendas and packages

    Council meeting packages are on a CivicWeb portal. That site's robots.txt blocks automated readers, so we did not open it and cannot say what is there. Source

  • Unknown
    Tender results

    The Tenders and Quotes page we read says the Township may join purchases run by Local Authority Services. We did not find a list of past awards. Source

Where the town speaks for itself

McNab-Braeside's official channels, as linked from its own website. Council members may also post on their own pages; we link only to official municipal channels.

How to raise a concern

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

  1. Integrity Commissioner

    The council page lists five Integrity Commissioner reports, dated December 18, 2023, August 19, 2024, October 19, 2024, February 19, 2025 and April 29, 2026, and a complaint form. We did not open the reports, so we say nothing here about what they found.

  2. Registry of declarations of interest

    The Township posts a Public Registry of Pecuniary Interest with a page for each year from 2019 to 2025. We did not open the yearly pages.
