When Mark Gerretsen decided to enter politics, the two most surprised by the decision were his Mom and Dad. His Dad, John Gerretsen sat around the municipal horseshoe here in Kingston and occupied a seat in the Ontario Provincial Legislative Assembly for a total of 35 years. Mark was elected as a city councilor and then Mayor. In 2015, he moved to the federal level and was elected to the House of Commons and re-elected in 2019 and 2021. In this episode, we have a non-partisan conversation about his passion for politics. This episode was recorded in November 2023.
