Rounding out Sarnia council is Brian White, David Boushey, Bill Dennis and Chrissy McRoberts who will serve on Lambton County Council and Anne Marie Gillis, Adam Kilner, George Vandenberg and Terry Burrell will serve on city council

Lambton Shores has a new mayor – Doug Cook.

He fills the vacancy left by the retiring Bill Weber.

In Strathroy Caradoc, long-time mayor Joanne VanderHeyden has gone down to defeat.
