The municipal election is drawing closer, and Ward 3 in East Zorra-Tavistock will have 4 candidates on the ballot, with Jeremy Smith looking to regain his seat.

EAST ZORRA-TAVISTOCK - A familiar face is looking to retain his seat on East Zorra-Tavistock Council.

Jeremy Smith will be on the ballot in Ward 3 when votes are cast next month. He is a 25-year resident of Innerkip, and his extended family’s history in the Township dates back to 1969. Smith says he is a retired radio personality and is now working in Facilities Operations with a Global Tier 1 Automotive Supplier. He has been involved in the community in a number of roles, including a past member of the Innerkip Community Centre Board of Management, a past director of the Innerkip Seniors Apartment, and a founding member of the (original) Innerkip Home & School Association. Smith talks about why he wants to remain on council.

"We'll return to discussing the prospect of a multi-use recreation facility for the township. It won't be long before we'll be adding to our green space inventory in each of our villages either by land purchase or future residential development."

Smith says those are areas he was involved with this past term, and he would like to see them get across the finish line. Smith says with all the projects that have been started, experience will be needed for the next term.

"It would be my honour to continue to serve the interests of residents of East Zorra-Tavistock with my longstanding record of experience, participation, commitment, accountability, and trust."

Residents will head to the polls to cast their votes on Monday, October 26, 2026.
