Jay Aspin (born August 19, 1949) is a Canadian politician. He was elected to the Canadian House of Commons for the federal Conservative Party of Canada in the 2011 election, representing the electoral district of Nipissing—Timiskaming.[1] He finished just 14 votes ahead of Liberal incumbent Anthony Rota in the initial count, triggering an automatic judicial recount[2] which ultimately confirmed his victory by a margin of just 18 votes.[3]
Prior to his election, Aspin had served as a councillor for the City of North Bay, as well as a trustee for the Near North District School Board and its predecessor, the Nipissing Board of Education. He also worked as a business consultant and for the Ontario Northland Transportation Commission.[4]
Aspin was defeated in the 2015 federal election by Anthony Rota, who Aspin previously defeated in 2011. Aspin lost by approximately 11,000 votes, garnering 14,000 votes in total.[5]
