InfoJulia Munro was first elected to the Ontario Legislature in 1995. She was re-elected in 1999 and 2003.

Born in Hamilton, Ontario and raised in the Toronto area, she is a graduate of the University of Toronto. She taught students in the secondary school system for 28 years, first in North York and then for the York Region Board of Education.

After her election in 1995, Julia served as Parliamentary Assistant first to the Premier, and then in the Ministries of Transportation, Culture and the Management Board. During her years in office she led government reviews of the voluntary sector, the Heritage Act, program evaluation and regulatory changes in Transportation.

Both in government and in opposition, Julia served as a member of the Public Accounts Committee, the watchdog group that oversees government spending. In October 2006, she was appointed chair of the Government Agencies Committee, which reviews government appointments and agencies such as the LCBO and Hydro 1.

In 2003, Julia was appointed PC Critic for Municipal Affairs and Seniors. She moved to the Culture portfolio in 2004, and in 2005 also assumed the additional responsibility for Children and Youth Services.

She is proud of the work that the PC government accomplished led by Mike Harris and knows that the party will thrive under the leadership of John Tory.

Julia has spoken out strongly against the McGuinty Liberal government's continued attack on individual rights and freedoms. She opposes the growing reach of the Liberal government into people's lives and wishes to see rights and responsibilities restored to individuals and families where they belong.

Julia Munro and her family are long-time residents of the riding of York North. Julia and her husband John have lived in Georgina since 1972. They have one adult daughter.
