| Info | In October 2003, Mario G. Racco was elected to the Ontario legislature as the Provincial Member of Parliament for the riding of Thornhill. In March 2006, he was named Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Labour.
Mario has a proven track record in getting results for Thornhill. Working with members of the community, he was able to make a difference in getting CANAC Kitchens to compromise in finding a solution to the concerns of environmental pollution brought forth by area residents. By moving its polluting operations from Thornhill, but retaining the assembly line and administration in this location, not only did he address residents concerns but also ensured that CANAC remains a major employer in Thornhill.
Prior to his election to Queen’s Park, Mario was a long-serving member of Vaughan Council. Popular with his constituents, he was elected in six consecutive elections from 1982 to 2000.
As a Vaughan Councillor, Mario has a solid record of getting results. He helped establish and build numerous parks, recreation facilities, community centres and libraries. He is especially proud of his efforts in securing and preserving land that is now the Uplands Ski and Golf recreation facility and the purchase of the Sugarbush nature area. Mario's dedication was recognized with the naming of Racco Parkway.
Since moving to the Thornhill area more than 26 years ago, Mario has been an active volunteer: helping to organize the local Terry Fox Run for Cancer Research; Canada Day festivities, many other community-building activities.
Born in 1955, Mario earned a diploma in Business Administration from Ryerson Polytechnical Institute and a degree in Business Administration from York. Prior to entering politics, he worked for Thorne Riddell Chartered Accountants and Dunwoody Chartered Accountants.
Mario and his wife, Sandra, have two children, Alexander and Katrina.
