CBC got another one wrong

Must have something to do with urban centrism.

The headline reads: "Fortin Victoria's new mayor; 3 Island mayors unseated."

Wrong.

At least four Island mayors were unseated.

The mayor of the District of North Cowichan, formerly Jon Lefebure, was defeated by Tom Walker. North Cowichan lies immediately north of the City of Duncan.

There were a total of 5,969 votes cast for mayor of North Cowichan. Walker unseated Lefebure by 155 or 2.6% of the total.
