2026 Town of Mono Election · Candidate for Councillor
Protecting what we love. Planning for what comes next.

Brad is running to ensure every part of Mono has an accessible voice on Council and to help the Town make responsible decisions that protect its rural character, natural environment and financial future.
He believes growth and change should be managed with residents — not imposed on them — and that Council should communicate clearly before important decisions are made.
“Good local government begins by listening. Mono Council should focus on its core responsibilities, treat every resident fairly and ensure every tax dollar and hour of staff time delivers value we can measure.”
Protecting what we love. Planning for what comes next.
I’m running because I believe Mono can protect what makes our community special while planning responsibly for the future.
My priorities are straightforward: focus on municipal fundamentals, spend tax dollars responsibly, maintain the infrastructure we depend on, protect Mono’s rural character and natural environment, and make sure every part of our community has a voice.
I won’t pretend to have every answer. I will do the homework, listen before making decisions, and approach every issue with the long-term interests of Mono residents in mind.

Mono resident. Local business owner. Community volunteer. Experienced leader.
Brad Mayer-Harman is a Mono resident, husband, father, local business owner and longtime community volunteer.
Brad and his wife, Lianna, have built their life in Mono, where they are raising their family in south Mono. Brad helps with the Purple Hill community rink, volunteers with the Optimist Club, supports local charities and community events, and has volunteered with organizations including Habitat for Humanity.
His professional and community leadership experience spans business, organized real estate, provincial advocacy and local volunteer service.
Rooted in Community
He grew up in the small village of Cheltenham, where he learned the importance of community at an early age. Raised by his widowed mother alongside three siblings, Brad was taught that perseverance, education and hard work could overcome difficult circumstances.
Business & Leadership Experience
He has worked as a REALTOR® since 2010 and leads The Mayer-Harman Team. He served as President of the Brampton Real Estate Board and spent four years as a Provincial Director of the Ontario Real Estate Association — experience in governance, budgets, public policy and advocacy that he believes would let him contribute thoughtfully from his first day on Mono Council.
In 2009, Brad completed his mortgage agent education at Seneca Polytechnic and earned an Honours Bachelor of Business Administration from Brock University. His career has centred on helping families navigate some of the largest financial and personal decisions of their lives — work that has taught him the importance of listening carefully, communicating honestly, negotiating effectively and protecting the interests of those who place their trust in him.
As a board president and provincial director, Brad worked with elected officials, industry leaders, community representatives and stakeholders with many different perspectives. He learned how to ask difficult questions, study complex issues, build consensus and advocate for practical solutions.
That work ethic took root early. At 12 years old, Brad began working at Blue Heaven Farm. As a teenager he spent a summer planting trees in Northern Ontario — an experience that strengthened his work ethic and gave him a lasting appreciation for our natural environment. Those early lessons continue to shape how he approaches his family, his business and his involvement in the community today.
Community Service
Brad helps with the Purple Hill Park community rink and volunteers with the Optimist Club, and regularly supports local charitable and community events, including youth sports, the Orangeville Food Bank and Habitat for Humanity.
For Brad, community involvement is not something that begins during an election. It is part of how he has always chosen to live.
Why I’m Running
Brad first ran for Mono Council in 2022 and came within just 71 votes of being elected. Rather than discouraging him, that experience strengthened his commitment to serving the community. He continued listening, learning, volunteering and staying involved in the issues affecting Mono residents.
Brad will not promise that every decision will be easy or that everyone will always agree. He will promise to listen carefully, study the facts, explain his decisions openly and always put Mono’s long-term interests first.
