Kingston Mayoral Campaign 2026

A Better Kingston.
Together.

Our city. Our voice. City Hall for All.

Conny Glenn Candidate for Mayor
"I'm not running to get into City Hall. I'm running to open it."

— Conny Glenn, Candidate for Mayor of Kingston

A city that honours its roots and builds what comes next.

Kingston's identity, our limestone buildings, waterfront, and neighbourhoods, is one of our greatest strengths.

Protecting it doesn't mean standing still. It means building on it thoughtfully, with the people of this city at the centre of every decision.

Housing that fits

Thoughtful intensification that respects neighbourhoods and reflects real community needs.

Innovation for people

Connecting Kingston's research and institutions to everyday solutions in housing, food, and sustainability.

Decisions made with you

Bringing residents into the room earlier, and making sure every voice has a real pathway into City Hall.

Growth for everyone

Growth without inclusion creates division. Every decision grounded in equity and community benefit.

What Conny Will Fight For

Kingston Deserves Better.
Conny Glenn Will Deliver It.

  • Housing that works for everyone

    Expanding rental registry, accelerating affordable housing, and holding developers and landlords accountable to real community standards.

  • Homelessness tackled with compassion and resolve

    Structured, humane, and effective, because real solutions don't choose between community safety and human dignity.

  • A city people can afford to live in

    From food security to transit to infrastructure, putting affordability at the centre of every budget decision.

  • Defence and economic opportunity

    Leveraging Kingston's unique position to ensure the federal Defence Industrial Strategy delivers real investment and jobs here.

  • A City Hall that answers to you

    Transparent, accountable, and open, where residents have a voice and insiders don't run the show.

  • A Smart Green Kingston

    Advancing green spaces and climate resilience. Investing in smart infrastructure today will save the city millions tomorrow.

About Conny Glenn

Conny Glenn grew up in Long Sault and chose Kingston as the place to build the next chapter of her life. After graduating from the University of Waterloo, she moved to Toronto and built a health, safety, and wellness consulting business from scratch during a recession nearly 30 years ago.

During her years in Toronto, Conny chaired Turning Point Youth Services, supporting youth and families through crisis, and served on a Legal Aid Area Review Committee advocating for equal access to justice. After a decade of work, Conny also established Kinesiology as a regulated health profession. She and her husband later chose Kingston as home, drawn by its strong sense of community, natural beauty, culture, and opportunities for families.

Today, Conny is known as a community builder, healthcare advocate, and principled voice at City Hall, serving as Sydenham District Councillor, Chair of many committees including the Housing and Homelessness Advisory Committee, and as a national advocate via her Board position with the Federation of Canadian Municipalities.

She and her husband are proud parents of four sons and grandparents of three. An avid hiker, gardener, and sci-fi enthusiast, Conny believes strong communities are built by people who show up, listen, and work together.

That's not a politician's résumé. That's a Kingstonian's.
