Terence Young
Terence Young and his family (Gloria, Hart and Madeline) have been members of the
Oakville community for over 20 years.
Terence served as MPP for North Oakville from 1995 to 1999. He won the riding by over
16,000 votes - one of the largest pluralities in Ontario.
Like many in Oakville, Terence has volunteered in the community for many years. He
has worked with Crime Stoppers, Community Policing, the United Way, Glen Abbey
Residents’ Association and many other community groups.
Whether it was as MPP, community volunteer or, more recently, as Oakville’s
Conservative member of Federal Parliament, Terence has always worked hard to put
Oakville on the map.
Through the Terence Young Community Action Centre, Terence has helped countless
Oakville residents with federal issues such as pensions, health care, immigration and
veterans’ affairs.
Outside of politics, Terence has worked with groups such as the Canadian Opera
Company, Family Alliance Ontario and Canadian Veterans Remembered.
Terence also founded Drug Safety Canada, a non-profit group dedicated to promoting
the safe use of prescription drugs and raising awareness of adverse reactions to
prescription drugs.
