The topic was introduced for conversation, after Councillor Cunningham relayed some notes he had on a recent e mail on a Ferries Committee response to the planned service cutbacks by BC Ferries.
The Mayor outlined his thoughts at last week's City Council sessions, placing a strong hint that he would like to see Councillor Cunningham take on the duties that were previously held by former City Councillor Jennifer Rice.
The Mayor took over her position on the Advisory Committee when she entered the provincial election campaign last spring.
Since then, he has apparently been looking to reposition Prince Rupert's spot on that Advisory council, allowing for Prince Rupert representation to as he put it, "be more effective and to have double the voice" on the Committee.
