Joseph W. Carey was a Canadian politician, who served as mayor of Victoria, British Columbia in 1883 and 1884. Prior to his election to the mayoralty, Carey worked as a land surveyor.〔Patrick A. Dunae, John S. Lutz, Donald J. Lafreniere and Jason A. Gilliland, "Making the Inscrutable, Scrutable: Race and Space in Victoria’s Chinatown, 1891". ''BC Studies'', Vol 169 (Spring 2011). pp. 51-80.〕 During his mayoralty, sheriff James MacMillan entered city hall in 1884, seizing city property, including petty cash and councillors' office furnishings, after Carey refused to pay an $870 legal bill owed by the city.〔("The little city hall that grew" ) ''Victoria Times-Colonist'', July 29, 2012.〕 The seized furnishings and equipment were placed for public auction, which ended when ''Daily Colonist'' editor David Higgins and private citizen Joseph Spratt paid the outstanding bill.〔 He was defeated in the next municipal election.〔 He subsequently returned to his work as a surveyor, and also owned several properties in downtown Victoria, one of which was in operation for several years as a brothel.〔Patrick A. Dunae, "Geographies of sexual commerce and the production of prostitutional space: Victoria, British Columbia, 1860–1914".
