Re-Elect Jason Deneault Ward 3
About Jason
Jason is a husband and father to two girls. He is a front-line healthcare employee, working with seniors in long-term care for over 25 years. Jason is passionate about making sure all voices are heard. He is a lobbyist and advocate for long-term care, and is proud to have served as your Ward 3 Councillor for the past 4 years.
Jason was born in Hamilton, Ontario in 1977, and was raised by a single mother on social assistance living in Hamilton Housing (Subsidized Housing). It was during these years that he realized the importance of community and social programs and the impact they played in his own development, both socially and emotionally.
He graduated from Niagara College in 1999 with a Diploma in Recreation and Leisure Services and received a Post Graduate Diploma in Therapeutic Recreation from Georgian College in 2000.
Jason was hired in December 2000 in the Recreation Department at a local not-for-profit long-term care facility and has remained there since. Kitchener is his home. Ward 3 is his home!
In the late 2000’s, Jason became a Union Rep in his workplace. He fought diligently for members, ensured that their collective agreement was followed and, most importantly, made sure his members’ rights were protected. In 2009, he became Union Chair. This allowed him the opportunity to collective bargain on behalf of his members while also continuing to defend their rights against employers.
In 2019, Jason was proudly elected to his Local Union as Financial Secretary. In this role, he strengthened his ability to manage and support union member requests and challenges. It also expanded his experience with fiscal constraints and responsibility.
Through life, work, City Council and Union experience, I want to advocate. I want to fight for those whose voice is unheard. I want to champion our Community and our Ward. Ward 3 deserves a Councillor that has a continued presence, and responds to your needs and concerns no matter how big or small. I prioritize community-led change and want to continue to bring your voice to City Council.
I’m not just an elected official, I am your Neighbour. Your concerns are my concerns.
Ward 3 is my Home and my Priority.
