john sweeney (ontario politician)

John Roland Sweeney (1931-2001) was a Canadian politician and educator. Sweeney served as the Waterloo Catholic District School Board's first director of education from 1969 until 1975 when he entered provincial politics with his election to the Ontario legislature as a Liberal MPP. He was a candidate in the 1982 Liberal leadership convention but was eliminated on the first ballot. He sat on the Opposition benches until the Liberals formed government under David Peterson following the 1985 Ontario election. Sweeney joined the cabinet first as Minister of Community and Social Services and then as Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing. Sweeney did not run in the 1990 Ontario election. Out of politics he became chair of the Canadian branch of Habitat for Humanity and served as Chancellor of St. Jerome's University from 1992. He died in 2001 from a heart attack.
