Previous elections
The board itself has changed between elections. Its name and its trustee zones are not the same in every year, so each table below is titled exactly as that year's certificate titled the race, and results are not a like-for-like series across years.
2022 (full 2022 results)
| Candidate | Votes | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Eric Lapointe Elected Ex-Trustee | 709 | 70.4% |
| Saveira Caruso | 298 | 29.6% |
2018 (full 2018 results)

Region-wide totals from the City's archived results page; the certificate gives only the Barrie subtotal shown in brackets.
2014 (full 2014 results)
| Candidate | Votes | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Guy Belcourt Elected Ex-Trustee | 515 | 50.0% |
| Eric R. Lapointe | 514 | 50.0% |
Eric R. Lapointe won more Barrie votes than Guy Belcourt (134 to 89) but lost the seat region-wide by a single vote, 514 to 515. Publishing only the Barrie column would state the opposite of the result.
2010 (full 2010 results)
| Candidate | Votes | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Guy M. Belcourt Elected Ex-Trustee | 535 | 54.5% |
| Eric R. Lapointe | 447 | 45.5% |
The document gives both a Barrie subtotal and the region-wide total; the region-wide total decides the seat. As in 2018, the Barrie column ran the other way: Lapointe won more Barrie votes (124 to 105) but lost the seat region-wide.
