What are people saying about Gary?

Susan & Jim Willshaw: “We have known Gary for a number of years and have always found him to be a knowledgeable and respectful person. We have received replies to our emailed comments, recently a forestry issue, and timely referrals to appropriate city staff. As for policy matters, we do admire the attention he gives to each topic, his tempered and respectful questions, and the responsible conclusions he reaches. We have occasionally disagreed with his vote, not his reasoned logic.”

Patty Thompson: “I have known Gary both professionally and personally for several years. He is a man of integrity and always demonstrates a strong sense of commitment to the community. Gary will be a definite asset to Ashburnham Ward!”

Dave Ralph: “I have known Gary through education, sports, and as a friend. Gary is a dedicated Councillor who is not afraid to take on a challenge and make a decision.  Gary’s enthusiasm, work ethic, and experience is needed at City Hall”

Walter DiClemente: “I have had the privilege of knowing Gary for several years through our involvement in the sports community, where I have seen firsthand his commitment to building strong relationships, and making a positive difference. My respect for Gary extends beyond sports as he has been our Ashburnham Ward Councillor for the past 12 years. In that role, he consistently demonstrated outstanding leadership, and sound judgment. He understands the challenges facing our neighbourhood and has the experience and dedication needed to represent the residents of Ashburnham Ward.”

Paul & Edwina Doig: “I have had the pleasure of knowing Gary both as an administrator with KPRDSB and as a Councillor in Peterborough. He is a devoted leader who works hard to support the constituents in his area as well as the interests and concerns of all in the Peterborough area. He is a man of integrity and honesty, both qualities we strongly need as we begin a new era for Peterborough moving forward.”

Bob & Charmaine Prole:”Gary Baldwin has been our councillor in Ashburnham Ward for the past 12 years. We have always found Gary to be a very friendly and approachable person. He is a good listener. Any time we have had any questions or concerns, he has been prompt in responding to us. He has always tried his best to resolve issues or answer our questions. His years of experience have allowed him to direct us to the appropriate city employee who can get us any further help we have needed. We feel confident in giving Gary our support in the upcoming election knowing that his experience, honest work ethic and his sincere belief in trying to move Perterborough forward will be essential for the success of the new council.”

Paul & Linda Jobe:“We were fortunate to have met Gary Baldwin when he was running for Ashburnham Ward Councillor 12 years ago. We found him to be such a caring and hard-working person. He was and is so involved in our community, taking time to talk to many constituents and members of the community. Gary was never in a rush to leave until he had heard what they had to say and see how he could help. Even though we are not in his ward, we value Gary as an experienced, progressive person with great integrity and knowledge. We hope that Gary will be re-elected in Ashburnham Ward as he brings experience, which will be so needed at City Hall as Peterborough elects a new mayor and a new Peterborough City Council in 2026. Thanks Gary, for your past and future service to Peterborough. We wish you all the best as you go forward working to be re-elected councillor in Ashburnham Ward.”
