The only candidate who has successfully managed, forecasted and budgeted million of dollars. And who can dive into the details of the budget in your interest as a taxpayer. I like taxpayer value.

About Marc Mantha
Born and raised in the beautiful landscapes of Northern Ontario, I moved to Toronto for my career in Retail Business Management, Development and Business Analysis. I was attracted to the challenges other executives ran from and solved challenging problems to develop business and make failing business profitable.
During this time I was always coming to Gravenhurst for as long as I can remember for what believed to by the most extraordinary lakes and landscapes in the world. I had purchased some land from one of the long standing locals and found myself there at every opportunity. Eventually, I moved into the town of Gravenhurst as a permanent resident and decided to make this my home. I designed and built my own home using local trades and materials to support the businesses of my friends and neighbours. I joined the ranks of the town’s volunteers and would become the President of the Ryde Community Co-op Inc. Dedicated to the well being of our community.
I became deeply involved in municipal affairs of the town and immersed in community leadership with local support groups like the Ryde Community Co-op, G.A.P., Feed It Forward and other district community support organizations.
