Rooted in Caledon. Working for you.

Meet Heather

Heather French has proudly called Caledon home for over 50 years. Born and raised in the community, she met her husband while working locally and together they raised their four children in this beautiful town. Heather holds both a Bachelor of Education and a Bachelor of Applied Arts in Early Childhood Education, which led to many rewarding years as a teacher. Later, she and her husband purchased the family farm and grew it into a successful, multigenerational business. Through her experience in education, agriculture, and business, Heather brings practical leadership, financial responsibility, and a collaborative approach to serving the residents of Ward 4.

A passionate and active community volunteer, Heather has dedicated countless hours to local organizations, school councils, sports programs, and 4-H throughout her life. She has received multiple awards for her commitment to giving back to her community, including 2 Queen Jubilee medals, Town of Caledon Civic award and OAAS Meritorious Service Award. She has also been a proud member of the Albion and Bolton Agricultural Society for more than 30 years, reflecting her commitment to agriculture and her passion for bridging the gap between rural and urban communities by helping people better understand where their food comes from. Heather understands the issues that matter most to families, seniors, businesses, and neighbourhoods across Ward 4, and she is excited for the opportunity to serve her community in a new way as councillor.
