Claudine Craigie
Candidate for Ward 4 Councillor — 2026 County of Brant Municipal Election
About Claudine Craigie
My husband Ian and I have been part of the County of Brant for over 20 years. We now live in the Village of Burford. We are the proud parents of our daughter, Carrigan, who has grown up in and actively participated in the County of Brant community.
I graduated from Sheridan College in 2000 with a degree in Early Childhood Education with a focus as a Child Life Specialist, and I hold a Life License with a specialized focus in ethics and compliance. At Sheridan, I also gained a background in Police Science and Studies. Through my work in telecommunications and insurance, I have obtained an aptitude for business development, research, teaching, budgeting, data analysis, and compliance.
Over the past several years, I have spent my time consulting with small businesses on operations and growth and exploring new passions, including aromatherapy.
I became the primary caregiver for my mother-in-law in our home from October 2022 until her passing in April 2025. During this time, I advocated for her personal support workers as I became aware of injustices and a lack of resources in both the private and public healthcare sectors, especially in Ward 4.
With a passion for community, I continually seek ways to be involved in the County of Brant. I am passionate about equality for students in the secondary school system and have advocated for better guidance, responsible spending, and stronger discipline against bullying in schools. In my spare time, I volunteer for Sato Saved End of the Line Dog Rescue in Brantford.
More recently, I have focused on positivity, growth, and new beginnings. Much of which is reflected in our backyard through various trees, shrubs, and florals.
Let’s work together to build a stronger, more connected Ward 4.

Key Priorities

- Community: Creating a vibrant local economy with strong connections between local businesses and residents.
- Infrastructure before Growth: Improve road safety and traffic management.
- Community safety and well being for drivers and pedestrians.
- Community hubs including libraries, local programming and small businesses are essential to our neighbourhoods.
