Meet Shaughna Ainsworth
A Ward 1 resident, community advocate, and candidate for City Councillor in Barrie, Ontario.
I have called Ward 1 home for over 30 years. I know this community — its strengths, its challenges, and its potential. That's why I'm running for City Councillor.
I believe Ward 1 deserves a strong, accountable voice at City Hall. I have been involved in my community and have seen first hand how decisions made at City Hall affect everyday life in Ward 1. I am running because residents deserve a councillor who listens, shows up, and works for what matters.
My campaign is built on three core values: accountability, community, and common sense. I will always put Ward 1 residents first.
Core Values
Accountability
Transparent decisions, always
Community
Ward 1 residents come first
Common Sense
Practical solutions that work
A Legacy of Service
A Legacy of Service
I have spent many years watching what true public service looks like. Inspired by my mother's commitment to Ward 1, I have embraced those same values of listening, integrity and dedication to community. I am ready to serve Ward 1 with my own voice, energy and passion.
My Story
Why I'm Running
Ward 1 is a wonderful community that deserves good representation at City Hall. Too often, the concerns of our residents are overlooked in favour of other priorities. I'm running because I believe every Ward 1 resident deserves a councillor who will work for safer streets, responsible development, and real investment in our community.
Let's Build a Better Ward 1 Together
I'd love to hear from you. Whether you have a question, a concern, or want to get involved in the campaign — my door is always open.
