Kathleen Wynne

Former Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne reflects on a lifetime of political engagement, from local school board activism to becoming Ontario’s first woman premier and Canada’s first openly gay premier. Wynne argues that democracy depends on strong public institutions, meaningful civic participation, and a belief that people can shape the decisions that affect their lives. She traces her own political journey to a conviction that education, community engagement, and collective action are essential foundations for democratic society.
