Pickering Councillor Lisa Robinson has alleged cover-up and silencing in council meeting in a video posted online.
Councillor Robinson had accused Pickering Mayor Kevin Ashe and Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Marisa Carpino of trying to silence her after she called out a director for ‘lying to council and the public — multiple times’ during the last meeting (see below).
In a social media post, Robinson explains that she proposed a motion to hold staff accountable. Instead, she said that the mayor and CAO removed all staff from meetings for March to ‘protect them’, and later ruled her motion out of order—although Robinson maintains it was procedurally sound.
Robinson stated, “This isn’t democracy—it’s authoritarianism. The people of Pickering deserve truth and accountability—not political cover-ups.”
