}}Matthew Brown is a Canadian politician, who was elected mayor of London, Ontario in the city's 2014 municipal election.[1]

Background

Brown was born in London, he grew up in Woodstock before graduating from the University of Waterloo.[2] He has two sons.[2]

Mayoralty

In the 2014 mayoral race, he defeated runner up Paul Cheng. Prior to his election to the mayoralty, Brown represented Ward 7 on London City Council.[3]

In a 2017 episode of the television series Political Blind Date, Brown and Giorgio Mammoliti discussed their differing perspectives on the issue of safe injection sites.[4]

In April 2018 Brown announced that he would not seek re-election in the upcoming municipal election.[5]

Affair

On June 14, 2016, he temporarily suspended his duties as mayor following his disclosure of an affair with deputy mayor Maureen Cassidy.[6] The affair drew national attention across Canada.[7][8][9] The London Integrity Commissioner issued a report to City Council stating that Matt Brown and Maureen Cassidy violated sections 2.4, 5.1 and 5.1(1)(e) of the Municipal Code of Conduct.[10] In the report the integrity commissioner stated that he "has no authority" under current guidelines, to demand a resignation or prevent either office holder from running for re-election.[10]

Brown announced his return to duties as mayor on June 22, 2016 and on June 23, 2016 attended his first council meeting since the leave.[11]

On September 29, 2016 it was announced by CBC News that he had separated from his wife, Andrea.[12]
