Angela Grogan, Mayor Port Hope 2026
A Port Hope that works for everyone
Fair taxes. Real transparency. A town where every neighbourhood — not just the ones near the water — gets a seat at the table.
“Leadership is not a performance. It is a responsibility. It means listening with respect, acting with integrity, and being accountable to the people you serve.”
— Angela Grogan
The Platform
Committed to Trust, Transparency, and Community
Port Hope has been my home for approximately 13 years. I am a former educator, entrepreneur, real estate broker and community advocate with experience in governance, finance and community leadership.
I am running for Mayor because I believe leadership begins with listening, preparation, integrity and accountability. If elected, I will serve as a full-time Mayor, giving the responsibility, visibility and day-to-day leadership the office deserves. I will bring an independent voice, respect for every tax dollar, thoughtful decision making and a commitment to both Ward 1 and Ward 2. I want residents to feel heard, respected and included in the decisions shaping our future.
Your Voice. I’m Listening.
About Angela
She's not new to this work
Angela Grogan is running for mayor of Port Hope for a second term, and she’s bringing the same approach she’s used for years: show up, listen first, and follow through in public where people can hold her to it.
She’s the founder and chair of the Northumberland Diverse People Coalition, where she’s spent years building bridges across a county that doesn’t always agree with itself — on race, on money, on what fairness looks like. That work doesn’t stop at town hall.
“A council that only listens to the loudest room in town isn’t representing the whole town.”
Angela’s platform isn’t built from polling. It’s built from porches, coffee shops, and a decade of showing up to meetings most people skip.
One Port Hope
A town divided doesn't have to stay that way
Port Hope’s neighbourhoods don’t all have the same income, the same background, or the same access — and pretending otherwise doesn’t fix it. Here’s how Angela’s approach is different.
01
Every ward gets a real voice
Rotating town halls in every ward, not just the ones closest to municipal offices.
02
Budgets in plain language
A public breakdown of where money goes, translated out of budget-speak, before every vote.
03
Built on lived experience
Years running the Northumberland Diverse People Coalition means this isn’t theoretical for Angela.

Help make it happen
Campaigns run on people, not polling. Knock on doors, host a lawn sign, or chip in what you can — every bit moves this forward.
