About TCRA

What is The TCRA?

Founded in 1984, the Trafalgar Chartwell Residents’ Association is a volunteer-operated, not-for-profit corporation.  We work to help our neighbourhood maintain its quality, its community and its friendliness as growth and change take place.  


We have been a strong and effective voice for our neighbourhood with the Town, the Region and the Province on planning, development and services.  We work constructively with our councillors, our mayor, and our Provincial and Federal representatives, and we collaborate closely with our neighbouring residents’ associations.

Originally trained as a mining engineer, he spent most of his career as an information technologist, working for Inco Ltd. Now retired, Doug lives on Trafalgar Road, overlooking the 16 Mile Creek. An immigrant from England, he feels truly blessed to live in Canada and in this lovely town.

Hugh Murray - Director

Claire Merry - Director

Paul Ambrose - Secretary and Treasurer

Hugh and his wife Linda came to Canada from Scotland in 1974 planning for a two-year travel adventure before returning home. Those two years became fifty years, and Canada became home. They have three children and five grandchildren and have lived in the area since 2002.


Hugh has a degree in Physics from the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, and retired from IMAX Corp in 2015 as a Senior VP for Film Production.


Hugh and Linda love Oakville and intend it to be their forever home. Serving as a Director of TCRA is Hugh’s way of repaying in some very small way for the privilege of enjoying this unique town.
