Endorsements

I have known Cameron Wales for many years. 

Cameron always listens and ensures people are heard.  He speaks well and has a collaborative approach before decisions are made.

He has a young, vibrant voice with a fresh perspective. He is pro growth, but cautious, fiscally conscious, but willing to invest, and progressive on housing, transit, accessibility, and sustainability. As Mayor, he will grow Brockville sensibly, make the existing city work better, and protect taxpayers from unnecessary costs.

Most importantly, Cameron will plan for the next 10 to 20 years rather than the next budget. 

I endorse Cameron Wales as a candidate for Mayor, City Of Brockville

- Linda Eyre, Former Councillor, City Of Brockville, 1991-2006

I first met Cameron about 15 years ago when he stepped into a vital role in helping to coordinate youth and other volunteers in the annual Community Cleanup. His work was always conscientious and comprehensive, and I knew that I could count on Cameron to meet and most often exceed the requirements of the challenges we faced.

Cameron has approached his Council role with the same energy and enthusiasm I saw during his time with the Community Cleanup. His commitment, coupled with his personal qualities of integrity, optimism and compassion, make Cameron an excellent Brockville City Councillor. I have personally witnessed his ability to engage the youth in our beautiful city and this is very much needed for our future growth as a community.

I have had the pleasure of both teaching Cameron and working as his teacher advisor on various theatre projects over the years. Throughout high school, he was committed to social justice issues and dedicated to the arts. It is wonderful to see him carry his devotion to building a better community into his post-secondary studies and now into municipal politics.

Cameron is a great listener and seeks to create an inclusive and prosperous community. I am confident that he will continue to be a compassionate, thoughtful, and hard-working council member.

I am proud to endorse Cameron Wales for Mayor of Brockville.

Cameron brings something especially important to this election: experience. He has served two terms on Brockville City Council and his leadership on Council has included serving as Chair of the Governance Committee, which plays an important role in developing and reviewing the policies that guide the City. He has also served with the Planning Committee for 8 years, including a year as Chair, giving him valuable experience with the decisions that shape Brockville’s future growth and development.

With five current councillors not seeking re-election, that experience matters now more than ever. Brockville will benefit from a mayor who understands the role of Council, knows how policy is developed, can work collaboratively with councillors and staff, and will provide steady leadership from day one.

At this time of change for Brockville, I believe his knowledge of municipal governance, his years of service on Council and his experience leading important committees makes him the right choice to serve as our next Mayor.

- Katherine Hobbs, Brockville City Councillor, 2022-2026 | Manager of Brockville Tourism, 2017-2020

I’m proud to endorse Cameron Wales for Mayor of Brockville.

I wholeheartedly believe Cameron possess the necessary credentials and vision to make an exemplary mayor for his community. His education background in public policy and his experience as a councillor and a ROMA board representative make him more than adequately equipped to handle the political leadership of his community. As general manager of a retail small business, he has a strong pulse on the challenges facing small businesses in Brockville and across our province.

I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Cameron for a number of years through his work with ROMA and AMO. He has made quite an impression on municipal colleagues and residents alike. He has youthful energy and a commitment to his community unparalleled elsewhere. I truly think Brockville would be lucky to have him as their mayor next term. 

- Aidan Kallioinen, Town Councillor and Mayoral Candidate, Town of Espanola
