    CORRECTION: Barrie City Councillor Keenan Aylwin has not had his pay docked, nor did the Integrity Commissioner recommend it. A decision on whether to sanction the Councillor through official reprimand and removal of the post in question is scheduled to be rendered on June 12. We regret the error.
