Winnipeg City Councillor Markus Chambers has been named as the city's newest Deputy Mayor.
This comes after Vivan Santos' removal from the position after previously refusing to disclose her vaccination status.
Winnipeg Mayor Brian Bowman says he respects Santos’ right to keep her health information private, but he has been forced to remove her from the role.
Santos was noted as being the only Winnipeg Councillor not vaccinated earlier this year.
Mayor Bowman mentioned that City managers are working on a possible vaccine mandate for staff.
