About John Peirce
For over 34 years, I have been happily married to the love of my life, Kim. Together we’ve raised two wonderful children, Rebecca (Paul) and Matthew (Jennifer), and have been blessed with four amazing grandchildren — Leo, Jackson, Luke, and Sadie. Family has always grounded my values, shaping my commitment to building a community we can all be proud to call home.
Paris has been my home for over 45 years, living in the same house in Ward 3 for over three decades. I’ve seen this community change and mature over time, yet I’ve never lost sight of what makes it special day to day. As a Councillor, a neighbour, and a resident I remain invested in where we have come from and where we’re headed.

Currently Serving the Seat They're Seeking
Ward 3 Councillor
— County of Brant (2014-Present) Representing Ward 3 for the past three terms, I've brought continued steady leadership to Council and key committees, including Paramedics Services, Brant Municipal Enterprises, Active Threat, and OPP Detachment Board. Together, we've navigated the County's biggest challenges: rapid growth, rising taxes, and delivering real value for residents.
Key Priorities
- Financial Stability - Sound finances build strong communities. I will lead with disciplined, long-term planning through our Long Term Financial Plan (LTFP). Grow strategic reserves to reduce debt, and strengthen forecasting for the road ahead, while pursuing every grant and partnership opportunity to bring outside investment home and protect taxpayers.
- Experienced Leadership - Municipal challenges call for steady, informed leadership. Drawing on experience in both the private and public sectors, I bring strategic thinking, sound governance, and practical problem-solving to Council.
- Managing Growth - Mandated growth demands will continue. I am committed to responsible development that meets provincial targets while protecting the rural character, natural beauty, and small-town feel that makes our County special.
