A Pickering, Ont., city councillor previously embroiled in multiple misconduct complaints and pay suspensions has announced she's running for mayor in this year's municipal elections.
Coun. Lisa Robinson made the announcement in a video Sunday and is set to run against Kevin Ashe, incumbent mayor for the city east of Toronto, in the elections on Oct. 26.
Robinson, who was elected in 2022, was at the centre of multiple misconduct complaints beginning two years ago, including accusations of homophobia and racism and repeated appearances on right-wing media platforms.
