Glenn Hughes
Candidate for Ward 4 Councillor — 2026 County of Brant Municipal Election
About Glenn Hughes
What I Do — and What It Brings to Ward 4
My working life has never followed one straight road. I’ve spent more than 30 years in film and television, working my way through the industry and becoming a Picture Vehicle Coordinator on productions including The Handmaid’s Tale, The Queen’s Gambit, The Umbrella Academy, Designated Survivor, The Shape of Water and The Terminal List.
Before and alongside film, I worked in the music business as a promoter and tour manager, managed bands, and became a nightclub owner. I was one of the owners of Toronto’s Cherry Cola’s Rock ’n’ Rolla Cabaret & Lounge, a club built around live music and giving artists a place to perform.
Today, I also serve on the Executive Board of IATSE Local 873. All of those experiences have something in common: dealing with people, managing budgets and logistics, negotiating, solving problems under pressure and finding a way forward when someone tells you something can’t be done.
There’s a saying I’ve carried throughout my career:
“No is the long way around to yes. It’s the beginning of negotiating.”
That’s what I would bring to Ward 4. Listen first. Ask questions. Don’t accept “that’s just the way it is” as an answer. Look for a solution and get the job done.

Key Priorities
- My key priority is simple: get answers and get things done. That means responsible spending and property taxes, fixing roads and infrastructure, supporting local businesses and agriculture, finding realistic solutions for water and sewer, and making sure Ward 4 gets its fair share. Most importantly, listen to residents first — because their priorities become my priorities.
