Geoffrey Scott (Canadian politician)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Geoffrey Douglas Scott (born 1938-03-02) is a former Canadian Member of Parliament for the riding of Hamilton—Wentworth, representing the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada.
The riding of Hamilton-Wentworth became open when Tory incumbent Sean O'Sullivan resigned to become a Catholic priest in 1977. Scott won it in a by-election held on October 16, 1978.
Scott was defeated by Liberal John Bryden in the 1993 federal election.
In his teenaged years, Geoff was a budding impressionist, a talent he occasionally displayed, but only on request, during his political career. He formed a partnership with another budding impressionist, Rich Little, in the mid-1950s.
