We begin 2019 with a dinner meeting featuring the Mayor of South Bruce Peninsula, Janice Jackson.

We are expecting a Bio and topic description to arrive shortly and this will be included here on our website as well as in our “reply email“ to be sent out in mid January. You won’t want to miss this occasion to hear the Mayor’s presentation and have an opportunity to ask questions about what is being planned for the future of South Bruce Peninsula. If you plan to attend it is important that you respond so that the appropriate number of meals can be ordered.

Meet Mayor Janice Jackson
Janice was elected to Municipal Council in 2010 where she represented Sauble Beach in the former Ward System. With clear direction from her constituents, Janice successfully fought and defeated the 100 million dollar master sewer plan for Sauble Beach. Janice also fought against and prevented the no-questions-asked turnover of Sauble Beach to the First Nations. During this time, Janice was appointed to the Accommodation Review Committee where she successfully fought the Bluewater School Board for the survival of the Amabel Sauble School, which faced imminent closure.
After serving our town as Councillor and crafting a very clear vision for our town, Janice was elected Mayor of South Bruce Peninsula in 2014. After a challenging but successful four year run Janice, Deputy Mayor Jay Kirkland and Councillor Paul McKenzie were all re-elected in 2018 to serve a 2nd term.
Since being elected Mayor, Janice served for 4 years as Chair of the Bruce County Museum Committee. She currently sits on the Nuclear Industry Regional Advisory Committee, the Police Services Board, the Emergency Management Committee, the Municipal Emergency Control Group and the Bruce County Economic Development & Innovation Committee. Janice was recently appointed Chair of the Bruce County Paramedic Committee where she will continue her fight for a permanent EMS station at Sauble Beach.
Janice is an avid drummer who loves to travel, play hockey, fastball, badminton and golf. Most of all, she loves working for the people of the Town of South Bruce Peninsula!
