City of Greater Sudbury Receives Notice of Conclusion of OPP Investigation

May 30, 2022

The City of Greater Sudbury has been notified that the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) Anti-Rackets Branch, Investigation and Support Bureau has concluded its investigation into potential municipal corruption regarding the Kingsway Entertainment District development.

The investigation was requested by motion of City Council on September 14, 2021, as a result of allegations made by a City Councillor.

Investigators concluded there is no evidence to support the belief that the Councillor was influenced to vote in favour of the project in 2017, as that Councillor abstained from the vote and did not report any attempted offer of benefit in exchange for his vote.

The police investigation into this incident is concluded.
