BORN AND RAISED LOCAL ADVOCATE

Weston Miller
A Councillor For Our Community

Leadership that puts residents first. Strengthening our quality of life, representing your voice at town hall, and working together to achieve responsible growth for the town we call home.

Why I’m Running

To listen and represent the voice of residents at Town Hall.

Niagara-on-the-Lake is a community worth protecting — not only for its heritage and beauty, but for its people, neighbourhoods, and shared sense of community. It deserves thoughtful leadership that listens to residents, cares about their concerns, and leads with purpose.

I’m running for Councillor to help protect what makes our town unique, improve quality of life for residents, and ensure we plan responsibly for the future. That means listening across Old Town, Virgil, St. Davids, Glendale, Queenston, and our rural areas — and leading with respect, balance, and common sense.

The Priorities

Preserving what matters. Planning what's next.

A focused, practical agenda built around the issues that shape daily life in Niagara-on-the-Lake.

Responsible Growth, Infrastructure & Resilience

Plan growth in the right places, require credible infrastructure information before major decisions, make drainage, roads, water, and essential services core priorities, and protect what makes Niagara-on-the-Lake unique.

Good Governance & Public Accountability

Make important decisions easier to follow through recorded votes, plain-language reporting, responsible use of closed sessions, and meaningful public participation.

Quality of Life for Residents

Resident-first decisions that protect livable neighbourhoods, improve public spaces, and keep Niagara-on-the-Lake calm, safe, and welcoming for families, seniors, and all who call it home. 

Agriculture, Heritage & Environment

Treat agriculture as a working economic sector while protecting farmland, our heritage, trees, environmental systems, and the character of Niagara-on-the-Lake.

Record of Service

Raised here.
Serving our town.

    Strengthened the Association’s role as an active voice for residents, leading advocacy on planning issues, neighbourhood character, and meaningful public consultation.

  • Board of Directors, The Niagara Foundation

    Providing trusted financial oversight for major heritage preservation initiatives. Treasurer during the landmark acquisition of The Wilderness.

  • Board of Directors, Royal Oak School

    As someone who attended Parliament Oak Public School, I know how important local schools are to community life. I strongly support access to local education for families across town.

The Chautauqua Residents Association is small, but mighty, punching well above its weight class.

The association also tries to foster community spirit by hosting events and gatherings throughout the year.
