Re: Montreal has no mayor: Tremblay resigns due to corruption.

What do you mean it doesn't have a mayor? It has a deputy mayor.

The deputy mayor's primary role is to attend parties and events that the mayor is unable to attend. He's vested with the powers of the mayor in these circumstances, but must be replaced within 30 days according to election law.

Nonetheless, he is not the mayor, he is the mayor pro tem, a city councillor charged to fulfill the mayor's duties (not title) until a mayor is chosen.
