Kamloops mayor investigating source of city hall leaks

KAMLOOPS — Kamloops Mayor Reid Hamer-Jackson says he has launched his own investigation to determine who among council and staff has been passing privileged information to local media.

Hamer-Jackson has been trying to find the source of leaks from city hall for several months, especially since Kamloops This Week published details of a workplace investigation into the mayor’s conduct.

At council’s regular meeting Tuesday (Oct. 17), Hamer-Jackson said he’s trying to root out the source.

“I’ve actually been doing my own investigation. I’ve been really working on who’s been leaking or sources who have been leaking information out of closed meetings and things within the corporation,” said Hamer-Jackson during his mayor’s report, adding he doesn’t want it to cost anything.
