In the wake of allegations that he used taxpayer money to fund his son's wedding, Mayor Joe Fontana now has a lawyer.
Lawyer Gord Cudmore will be Fontana's legal advisor and the mayor issued a statement yesterday saying the RCMP is now reviewing the accusations.
Fontana says he won't be making any comments until the review is over.
City Councillor Stephen Orser spoke to Newstalk 1290 today and says there needs to be answers, and no one is saying anything so far.
The review is ongoing and there's no word now how long it will take.
