MEET TOM
Tom Kmiec was born in Poland and immigrated to Canada in the mid-1980s. Tom is serving his fourth term on behalf of the residents of Calgary Shepard and currently serves as the Deputy Speaker of the House of Commons in the 45th Parliament.
He previously served as the elected national caucus chair for the Conservative Party, as well as the Shadow Minister for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, Shadow Minister for Democratic Reform, Deputy House Leader of the Official Opposition, and co-chair of question period planning. He served on the finance and foreign affairs committees, the two most high-profile parliamentary committees. Tom has championed greater awareness for persons with rare disorders as well as tax fairness for persons with disabilities through his private member’s bill that would improve accessibility to the disability tax credit. He has also worked on legislation governing equalization and in 2021 passed his bereavement leave legislative proposal for parents as part of a brokered compromise to pass federal legislation before Christmas.
He earned a bachelor degree at Concordia University in Montreal and obtained a Master’s degree from Regent University in Virginia, USA.
He has served for cabinet ministers both provincially and federally. He is a past policy manager with the Calgary Chamber of Commerce and the past registrar for the human resources profession in the province of Alberta. He is also a past board member with the Kidney Foundation of Canada’s southern Alberta chapter and a 2-time Kidney Marcher. Tom is a father of three living kids and lost a daughter to a rare condition called Patau Syndrome in 2018.

JOIN TOM’S E-NEWSLETTER
In this illiberal time, what is missing is thoughtful debate and engaging commentary. I have decided to transition my parliamentary newsletter and my past practice of long Facebook notes into a Substack line in an effort to provide this thoughtful debate and accurate short commentary for constituents. Weekly Substack updates will include my reasoning on votes, updates on important legislation, speeches I give in Parliament, a summary of events on Parliament Hill, and so on. I will do so from a conservative perspective with the minimum amount of partisanship that you would expect from a Member of Parliament elected under a conservative banner.
Please consider signing up for my bi-weekly substack where I will provide a regular summary to my constituents and interested Canadians from coast to coast of activities on Parliament Hill.
