Timeline

1970

Todd Andrew Smith (born October 7, 1970) is a Canadian politician who has been the Ontario Minister of Energy since June 18, 2021.

2011

Smith ran in the 2011 provincial election as the Progressive Conservative candidate in the riding of Prince Edward—Hastings.

He defeated Liberal incumbent Leona Dombrowsky by 3,130 votes.

In November 2011, he proposed the Local Municipality Democracy Act which would have restored municipal zoning authority over green energy projects in Ontario.

The bill was defeated after first reading.

2012

In May 2012 he introduced the Electronic Commerce Amendment Act with Liberal MPP Yasir Naqvi.

It would have allowed for the use of electronic signatures on real estate transactions.

When the legislature was prorogued on October 15, the bill was removed from the order paper along with all other business.

2013

It was reintroduced on March 6, 2013, and it passed second reading on March 21 before being adopted by the government as a part of the 2013 budget.

2014

He was re-elected in the 2014 provincial election defeating Liberal candidate Georgina Thompson by 4,107 votes.

In February 2014, he introduced the Tamil Heritage Month Act in order to proclaim January as Tamil Heritage Month.

This bill passed third reading on March 17, 2014 and received Royal Assent on March 25, 2014.

The Tamil Heritage Month Act “recognizes the valuable contributions that Tamil Canadians have made to Ontario’s social, economic political and cultural fabric.”

2015

In February 2015, he introduced the Raise a Glass to Ontario Act to reduce restrictions on Ontario craft breweries, wineries and distillers by allowing them to sell each others’ products.

This bill won the support of groups including Ontario Craft Brewers and the Wine Council of Ontario, but ultimately was not passed by the Liberal majority government.

While serving as an Opposition MPP in the Ontario Legislature, Smith spent time as his party's critic for the small businesses and red tape reduction, the Pan-Am and Parapan-Am Games, citizenship and immigration, the Hydro One Sale, natural resources and forestry, and energy.

2018

He has been the member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) for Bay of Quinte since 2018, and previously represented Prince Edward—Hastings from 2011 to 2018.

Smith is a member of the Progressive Conservative party and has held a number of cabinet positions throughout his time in government.

Smith previously served as Minister of Government and Consumer Services from June to November 2018; Minister of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade from November 2018 to June 2019; Ontario Government House Leader from June 2018 to June 2019; and Minister of Children, Community and Social Services from June 2019 to June 2021.

Smith was born and raised in Riverview, New Brunswick.

A graduate of Loyalist College, he worked for more than 16 years on the radio with Quinte Broadcasting's CJBQ, Mix 97 and Rock 107, eventually becoming the news director for Quinte Broadcasting.

He was again re-elected in the 2018 provincial election with 48 per cent of the vote, some 8,161 votes ahead of runner up Joanne Belanger of the NDP.

During his time in opposition, Smith introduced several private member's bills.

Once elected in 2018 the Progressive Conservative Government restored municipal rights to oppose renewable energy projects with the Green Energy Repeal Act, 2018, in line with the intent of Smith’s bill.

In 2018, Smith briefly considered running to succeed Patrick Brown as leader of the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party.

Citing family and financial reasons, he decided not to seek the position.

As the PCs formed the government during the 42nd Parliament of Ontario in 2018, on June 29, 2018 Premier Doug Ford appointed Smith to cabinet as Minister of Government and Consumer Services while serving concurrently as the Government House Leader.

On November 2, 2018 Smith was appointed as Minister of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade while maintaining his role as Government House Leader.

2019

On February 14, 2019 Smith launched the government’s Driving Prosperity auto plan that set out a 10-year vision for how industry, the research and education sectors and government could work together to strengthen the auto sector’s competitiveness.

The plan included action items that focused on creating a competitive business climate, supporting innovation, and creating talent.

During his tenure as Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade Minister Smith also introduced Bill 66, the Restoring Ontario’s Competitiveness Act in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario.

This legislative package included more than 30 actions to reduce the burden on job creators by cutting business costs, harmonizing regulatory requirements with other jurisdictions and reducing barriers to investment.

Bill 66 passed third reading on April 2, 2019 and received Royal Assent on April 3, 2019.

On June 20, 2019 Smith was appointed as Minister of Children, Community and Social Services.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic Smith led the development of the COVID-19 Action Plan for Vulnerable People to better protect vulnerable populations in high risk settings including homes serving those with developmental disabilities, shelters for survivors of gender-based violence and human trafficking, children’s residential settings and those residential settings supporting vulnerable indigenous individuals and families both on and off reserve.

Smith also played a critical role in other COVID-19 pandemic programs including the rollout of Temporary Pandemic Pay and the Temporary Wage Enhancement which supported more than 47,000 eligible workers in children, community and social services sectors.

2020
