Sean O’Meara
For Oakville Mayor
Election Day: Monday, October 26
Moving oakville out of the middle lane.
Our Town is not speeding or lagging behind, just cruising comfortably in the middle lane while others pass us by—municipalities willing to innovate and those willing to take measured risks.
Strong, principled leadership knows when it’s time to get out of the middle lane.

Who is Sean O’Meara?
Calling Oakville home for more than 40 years, Sean O’Meara lives in the heart of Bronte with his wife, daughter, and son.
He was first elected as Oakville’s Regional and Town Councillor for Ward 1 in 2014, serving 12 years in Council and working across the full spectrum of municipal government. He feels now is the time to move Oakville out of the middle lane, and propel us forward for the future. He is engaged and has the energy and experience to lead our Town today and in the years ahead.
Sean was the only Mayoral candidate who voted against provincially-mandated mega- growth, including at Mid-Town (around the Oakville GO), and will continue to fight to preserve Oakville’s character if elected your Mayor.
In 2014, he ran on a promise to “get Bronte moving” and has delivered on the Wyecroft Bridge, and infrastructure investments and smart traffic solutions for improved transportation for all of Oakville.
Sean has Chaired the Regional Administrative and Finance Committee, the Town of Oakville’s Budget Committee, the Visit Oakville Tourism Board, Bronte BIA, and more. He has sat on the Halton Industry Education Council linking students with businesses and the skilled trades and been a long time ally of the Halton Women’s Place.
Sean is Halton’s appointed representative on the Great Lakes St. Lawrence Cities Initiative and last year won the Ontario Member of the Year award. His advocacy has sought to protect our coastal shorelines, prevent invasive species from entering our Great Lakes and advocated to Provincial, State and Federal Government’s on both sides of the border to increase our billion dollar blue water economy on behalf of Oakville, Halton and the Great Lakes municipalities. He secured investments to preserve our shoreline. Lake Ontario is a defining feature of our community, and its protection is paramount.
