Wendy Squires-Ennis
Wendy Squires-Ennis is native to the Town of Portugal Cove – St. Philip’s, with her Squires ancestors originating in this town in the 1780s. She is the youngest child of the late Wendell and Helen Squires. She resides here, with her two children and her husband of 25 years, Shawn Ennis, who was a PCSP volunteer firefighter for a decade.
Wendy was raised in a business family and has been self-employed for 25 years, which has afforded her a unique skill set that will prove invaluable at the council table. For nearly 26 years, she has been a Registered Massage Therapist, with over 20 years in her home-based clinic in our town.
Wendy holds the comprehensive position of Chair of Quality Assurance, Education and Scope of Practice with the College of Massage Therapists of NL. This has taught her about the governance of regulatory bodies, which would benefit her in council. As a healthcare professional, she is discreet, empathetic and compassionate, while understanding the importance of always presenting professionally and maintaining confidentiality.
Wendy has worked in the wedding industry for 31 years in several capacities, which instilled how to prevent mishaps, manage stressful situations, deal with the public and work as a team. She has strong skills in communication, leadership, time management, and she is adaptable. Recently, Wendy has been advocating publicly for bus stop safety in our town. Her message has been well received and appreciated.
Wendy is honest, with a lot of integrity. She has an unwavering moral compass and sense of social justice. If she is a successful candidate, she will serve our community without a personal agenda. Wendy will stand her ground unapologetically and will not be influenced illogically.
Wendy has concerns about the lack of transparency and communication from council. Other hot topics of interest are conflicts of interest, unnecessary spending, accountability and safety. She feels that by voting for her, you are voting for yourself and your family. She will keep you informed of the status of your inquiries, and if beyond her scope, she will refer out to the appropriate subject matter experts. Wendy works with facts, not opinions.
Wendy has a wonderfully supportive family and is excited to learn and navigate this new role. She looks forward to meeting you and serving you, along with her neighbours, family and friends. If you haven’t felt heard, Wendy will listen.
