Mike Perry, Ward 3 Councilor, on The Influencer List!

“This list offers a glimpse of some of the top influencers in Kawartha Lakes in many different categories. It highlights some of those people shaping our city in politics, business, arts and culture, non-profits, food, and as community leaders. While clearly not an exhaustive list, these 18 individuals are a representative snapshot who are making significant changes and innovations, often benefiting the community.”

“Ward 3 Councillor Mike Perry has become a force to be reckoned with on council by not only being a very public advocate for the people who elected him, but also by making sure that underserved communities and Indigenous people have a voice at the council table. Perry, a lawyer by training, often asks the difficult questions regarding the minutia of city operations and decision making that many others did not consider. Perry is seen as having significant political ambitions on council and is widely expected to be one of the progressive councillors who may seriously consider a run for the mayor’s chair if Doug Elmslie decides to only be a one term mayor.”
