He had the privilege of first getting elected to council in 1994 and served as a Councillor for 6, three year terms in that capacity. In 1999 Roy studied by correspondence at the Athabasca University and obtained a certificate in Labour Relations. In October 2012 he ran and was elected as Mayor and is now in his third term in the role.
