About Bernard

Service to family and community

My values and dedication to Bowmanville!

Bowmanville is more than a place to live—it’s a community rich in history, strong values, and a welcoming, family-oriented spirit. Our historic downtown, parks, trails, and neighbourhoods make it a wonderful place to call home.

I believe in action and community involvement. Over the years, I have led fundraising initiatives supporting local causes, helped bring Street Eats to Bowmanville, and worked with a fellow Rotarian to revive Ribfest. I have volunteered with the Respite Program, participated in Earth Day watershed cleanups, and helped raise significant funds for the Bowmanville Hospital Foundation.

As our community grows, we must be proactive. We need to attract businesses that create jobs, strengthen our tax base, and help fund the infrastructure and services required for a growing population.

Downtown Bowmanville remains the heart of our community. While some King Street storefronts remain vacant, they represent an opportunity. We should focus on attracting destination businesses, restaurants, and unique experiences that draw visitors from across Durham Region and the GTA, while supporting the businesses already here.

We can also build on Bowmanville’s strengths by expanding festivals, community events, and family activities that bring people together, support local businesses, and showcase our town.

My vision is simple: preserve what makes Bowmanville special while preparing for the future. By investing in infrastructure, supporting local businesses, revitalizing our downtown, and attracting new investment, we can ensure Bowmanville remains a vibrant, welcoming, and prosperous community for generations to come.

I am proud of my record of service and excited about what we can accomplish together. With strong leadership, collaboration, and a clear vision, Bowmanville’s best days are ahead.
