Reg Freake · Candidate, Ward 4
A record of service

A steady hand who knows how Grimsby works

Reg Freake has spent years in the rooms where Grimsby's decisions actually get made. From economic development to planning, from the power utility to regional transit, he has done the unglamorous committee work that keeps a growing town moving — and he has the relationships across business and community to get things done.

A longtime Grimsby resident with a deep business network, Reg brings a practical, numbers-first approach to Town Hall: protect the character of our neighbourhoods, broaden the tax base so homeowners aren't left carrying the load, and turn plans that sit on shelves into projects residents can see.

His pitch to Ward 4 is simple — show up, ask the hard questions, and deliver.
