For those that don't know she was mayor of a town of 1,500 people. Generally places of this size aren't paying someone enough for it to be a full time job.
This article has a good chart for BC with population and mayor's salaries.

Yeah I looked into running for mayor for my town of 400 and the pay was barely 15k a year haha
For those who don't know, who/qui is used here and not that/que. The latter form objectifies people, which some find insulting.
