Bob Bailey was born and raised in the Sarnia-Lambton community. Bob has devoted much of his lifetime to serving the Sarnia-Lambton community. He realizes that the business and labour communities have been greatly affected by the current government’s lack of direction and focus.
He believes that there are four issues at the forefront in Sarnia-Lambton: health care and the long-awaited construction of the new hospital; the loss of manufacturing jobs in our local community, as well as the threatened closure of the Lambton Generating Station. Fourth; and, of no less importance, the lack of funding needed to strengthen and preserve our farming and rural communities.
Bob had been an employee of NOVA Chemicals for more than 30 years and held the position of Maintenance Contract Co-ordinator. His former community service includes having served as: a municipal Councillor for Enniskillen Township; as a board member for the Charlotte Eleanor Englehart Hospital (now Bluewater Health); and, as fund-raising chairperson for the Sarnia-Lambton United Way.
Bob has served as the Returning Officer for Elections Ontario in the riding of Lambton-Kent–Middlesex and as chairperson of the Sarnia and Lambton Unemployment Insurance Appeals Tribunal.
Bob has been married to Elizabeth for 37 years and they reside in the Town of Petrolia. They are very proud of their three adult children, son-in-law and 2 beautiful grand-children.
