Résumé
A councillor is an elected representative for a local government council in some countries.
Municipal government in Canada
Due to the control that the provinces have over their municipal governments, terms that councillors serve vary from province to province. Unlike most provincial elections, municipal elections are usually held on a fixed date of 4 years.
This is about honorary rank, not elected officials.
In Finland councillor (neuvos) is the highest possible title of honour which can be granted by the President of Finland. There are several ranks of councillors and they have existed since the Russian Rule. Some examples of different councillors in Finland are as follows:

As per the Seventy-fourth Amendment of the Constitution of India, municipal governance in India is looked after by elected councillors who are either member of municipal corporation (for cities) or municipality (for towns).
Under the Philippine Republic Act No. 7160 (otherwise known as the Local Government Code of 1991), a councilor is a member of a local council that is the legislative body of the local government unit. They are commonly referred to as "Sanggunian Member" because the official designation of municipal, city and provincial councils is the equivalent term in Filipino (used even when speaking or writing in English): Sanggunian Bayan, Sanggunian Panglunsod and Sanggunian Panlalawigan, respectively.
All local authorities in the United Kingdom are overseen by elected councillors.
