Please join us on Monday, April 18th when Hon. Kathleen Wynne, Minister of Transportation speaks at our podium.  

Kathleen Wynne was first elected as the MPP for Don Valley West in October 2003, and was re-elected to a second term in October 2007.  Kathleen was sworn in as Minister of Education on September 18, 2006.  In January 2010 she became Minister of Transportation.  Before the Premier asked her to serve as Minister, she was appointed as Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Training, Colleges, and Universities, Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Education, Chair of the Cabinet Committee on Community Affairs Policy, and Chair of the Liberal Women’s Caucus.  

Kathleen holds a Masters degree in Linguistics from the University of Toronto and a Masters degree in Adult Education from the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE). She also completed mediation training at Harvard University.  

Building on a lifetime of political activity and a career of public service, Ms. Wynne is a knowledgeable and passionate advocate for her local community of Don Valley West.  She has led citizens groups in a number of grassroots community projects and has played a major role as an organizer and facilitator. All of which has led to a results-based approach to life, government and community.  

Kathleen has three children, Chris, Jessie and Maggie and last May, she became the proud grandmother of Olivia Jane.  Kathleen and her partner Jane have lived in North Toronto for more than twenty years.
