About Me
FAYE EGO

Faye Ego, a founding member and President of the Wasaga Beach Ratepayers Association, Inc., made the decision to take a leave of absence and run for office back in 2022. She has worked tirelessly as one of our current town Councillors, through this term, helping to move Wasaga Beach forward.

Now it’s time to re-elect Faye as councillor. She will continue to be the voice of the people and continue to move Wasaga Beach forward.

Why am I asking to be Re-elected to Council?

In 2022, two of my top priorities were revitalizing tourism and working for a Town to be Proud Of!

Am I proud? Absolutely.  One of the first things we did as a Council, working alongside Staff, was to reopen our iconic Beach Drive!  The famous road was closed to traffic during the last council's term and then allowed to be covered with sand.

Reopening Beach Drive was a promise to our constituents, and we delivered on it within our first three months! Beach Drive reopened on January 17, 2023, to widespread appreciation. Once again, residents and visitors had road access to one of the most beautiful views and sunsets on Georgian Bay.

We have always been a tourist town, but the world is changing, and people are longing for the outdoors. We are capitalizing on our natural beauty to benefit both our residents and tourists.  I have recently returned from five weeks in Australia, and one thing I noticed, whether I was in a small Outback Town, or a major town/city, was that everyone wants a “spot” to enjoy the outdoors.  It may be a beautiful waterfront, a wooded trail or a very simple parkette, bench with a view, that is where people gravitate to; this holds true whether you reside or visit. The Government of Ontario has seen our worth: Nancy Island is finally getting the recognition it so deserves.   We are destined to be a world-class tourist attraction, and this is where we live!  Am I proud? Absolutely!

I have touched on only two of this Council’s accomplishments of which there are many, including:

  • two long-awaited high schools,

  • seniors housing,

  • long-term care,

  • a bus to and from Union Station,

  • beautification,

  • murals on and in buildings,

  • Farmers Market,

  • music and other events, 

  • Costco,

  • a second Shoppers Drug Mart,

  • Out of the Cold programs

  • The complete makeover of our much envied beachfront, including:

    • The Breakers Townhomes,

    • boutique shops,

    • Hampton Hotel,

    • Marriott Resort & Spa. 

    • Plus, residents for the first time ever have free Beachfront Parking!! Beaches 1 and 2, along with New Wasaga and Allenwood. 

  

I would like to thank all the wonderful people in this town who have supported me throughout the last four years. We have accomplished so much together, and the excitement is building. 

We need to stick together to continue to make all these great things happen, and I would be proud to represent you again. “Let’s Keep It Going”   A vote for us - a vote for Faye - ensures that success.
