Where in the repo can one check the data for representatives? The repo for -reps seems to just have the code for updating the reps.

You need to access that information via the API. It is not stored on GitHub.

I just noticed that Ottawa's information is out of date. I used the https://represent.opennorth.ca/postcodes/K1S0Z4/ and it returned Jim Watson as the mayor. @jpmckinney (apologies if this is not the right place for this and with some guidance I would be willing to help update the data)
