There are always rules. As I said earlier, each case is studied individually. The circumstances depend on the individual's profile and also on the municipality in question. In some larger municipalities, to all intents and purposes, it is impossible to do both because the duties of municipal councillors or mayor constitutes a full-time job. All this is taken into consideration. Earlier, I mentioned the comments of the department concerned. We must determine to what extent the department can, on an operational level, accommodate these employees.
There is no magic bullet. Each case must be studied individually. In certain circumstances, people can work on a part-time basis. Obviously, I'm referring to the municipal level, because at the federal and provincial levels, once elected, employees must resign. The question does not even come up. At the municipal level, it varies, depending on the circumstances.
