Sheldon Russell
I would like to introduce myself before the upcoming municipal election in which I am running for a seat on council. For those of you who do not know me, I was born and raised in Portugal Cove-St. Philips where I am the youngest of 5 children of the late Fred and Threasa Russell. I am a long-term employee of which was originally Crosbie Industrial since 1996, which has since changed to GFL Environmental for 28 years and counting. This has kept me busy where I have been an operator in the field of the removal of Municipal and Commercial Hazardous liquid waste using a Vacuum truck process. For the hazardous component of my work, I have been trained and am a member of the Hazmat Team, confined space rescue, OH&S (Occupation Heath and Safety) team and a member of Local 904 Union of Operating Engineers. I am an active volunteer with the Portugal Cove -St. Philps Harbour Port Authority for the past 10 plus years.
I take great pride in our community, its accomplishments over the years and for the years to come.
I’m passionate about giving back to my community that has given me so much. I believe that together we can continue to strive for positive change and meaningful improvements for all residents. I will be a strong voice for our community.
Over the coming weeks, I will be out and about around the community and will look forward to meeting as many of you as possible.
I look forward to hearing your ideas, concerns and hopes for the future.
Thank you for support, it truly means so much.
On October 02, 2025 place your trust in me and vote Sheldon Russell.
