On Saturday afternoon, citizens of the municipality of L’Ile-du-Grand-Calumet gathered in their cars to request that the council hold a vote of no confidence towards the mayor Serge Newberry. Another purpose of this manifestation was to demand the resignation of mayor Newberry.

CHIP 101.9’s Elizabeth Séguin was on site to cover the event.

A dozen cars, fitted with protests signs, traveled a few kilometres through the municipality for nearly twenty minutes.

After the rally, CHIP 101.9’s François Carrier met with one of the organizers, Mélanie Dumouchel, to find out more about the reasons for the event.
