Yes, that's John Campbell and Mayor John Rowswell, co-existing peaceably in this remarkable photograph taken tonight at Docks Riverside Grill.

The Mayor presented the controversial SooToday.com editorialist with an official City plaque, recognizing him as Sault Ste. Marie's "outstanding conspiracy theorist."

(Think we're making this up? Here's the plaque.)

The presentation occurred during a retirement soiree for Campbell, who's known for trusting the mayor about as far as he can throw a horse.

Campbell was also presented with a special Bob Jenkins caricature that shows him wearing a Campbell's Soup All Beef t-shirt.
