FREDERICTON — The only woman on Fredericton city council says she feels shut out when trying to advocate for change. Rogers was one of three women elected to city council seven years ago, but the only one to win election in 2016. Leanne Fitch, the city’s former police chief, offered support of Rogers on Twitter, saying “Accountability for misogyny @CityFredGov is long over due. Rogers said O’Brien has said to her that more women need to run for city council. The next council elections will be held in 2020, but Rogers said she has not decided if she will seek re-election.
