Martin Collier says he could have moved anywhere in the world with his wife Mary, but they decided to settle in Guelph for its "progressive municipal government, unique and historic downtown,
multitude of sports and cultural activities, array of wellness
practitioners and programs, proximity to nature and, especially, the
friendly people." In 2006, Collier established Healthy Transport Consulting, a group dedicated to providing
government, private sector and non-profit organizations with sustainable
transportation policy, planning, research and project/event management
services whose clients have included the Ontario Ministry of
Transportation, Environmental Commissioner of Ontario, Metrolinx/York
Region Transit, the Niagara Escarpment Commission, and Pollution Probe. Collier's other activities include co-founding the Toronto and Guelph chapters of the Centre for Active Transportation, being the first manager of Ontario Smart Growth Network, being a project manager for Transportation Options, working as an Ontario Development Officer at the Nature Conservancy of Canada and being the first manager of the ReinCARnate Vehicle
Recycling Project at the Recycling
Council of Ontario. And now, we wants to represent Ward 2 saying, "I am fortunate that my diverse career, civic advocacy and volunteering,
along with my education and love of music, has enabled me to make a
difference to the livability of cities for people and other species." Here are Collier's responses to the candidate questionnaire.
