BIOGRAPHY
I was born and raised on a family farm near Teeswater and after Grade 13 worked in the advertising department at Electrohome in Kitchener for four years. Gloria and I have been married for 53 years and have two sons and one daughter, plus five grandchildren. I bought my first truck in 1968 and have been self-employed for 46 years hauling mainly livestock and freight. I was a councillor from 2010 to 2014 and the mayor since then. I have the financial knowledge of running a successful business and not only working with the public but listening to their concerns.
ISSUE
The most important issue is the proposed referendum so that our residences can decide if the storage of nuclear waste is beneficial or not for us. Due to the high rate of costs for providing services it is expected we have to explore ways of cutting expenses to keep our taxes at a reasonable rate.
