Ottawa Board of Control

All three incumbent controllers were defeated as voters opted to elect a new slate of controllers. Notably, no French Canadians were elected to the Board of Control, and it was thought that this was the first election to have all four elected controllers be Protestants.

gollark: When you `fs.delete` a nonexistent file in CC:T it silently ignores it; in CraftOS-PC it says "invalid path" and crashes.
gollark: Hmm, I think I found a difference to CC:T.
gollark: Its labels were random bytestrings and CraftOS-PC didn't like serializing them.
gollark: Oh, potatOS caused that one time.
gollark: A cube would be if it had all the sides the same length.
