| | Mayor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In Canada mayors are usually elected at large by the citizens of a municipality for a fixed term. | | | In principle, the Mayor (who is usually a high ranking member of the local party) is responsible for managing the city administration while the Party Secretary is responsible for general policy and managing the party bureaucacy, but in practice the roles blur frequently causing conflict. | | | In the People's Republic of China, the Mayor (市长) may be the administrative head of any municipality, be it provincial-, prefectural, or county-level. |
