Mayor Olivia Chow's executive committee quashes idea of installing an aboriginal city councillor.

It's unclear how such a position was intended to work, and it appears neither video nor detailed minutes are available for the Jan. 30 meeting of the aboriginal committee from which the item originated.

Activist Daniel Tate told the committee it's "entirely inappropriate and a betrayal of democratic principles".
