Деннис Доусон (родился 28 сентября 1949 года) - канадский политик и администратор. Доусон - отставной канадский сенатор и бывший член парламента (депутат) в Палате общин . Впервые он был избран депутатом в 1977 году в возрасте 27 лет и был назначен в верхнюю палату премьер -министром Полом Мартином в 2005 году.
Родившись в Квебеке , Квебек, первое вступление Доусона в политику провели пять лет в качестве попечителя в Комиссии Des Ecoles Catholiques de Québec . После этого Доусон представлял катание на Луи-Хеберте , Квебеке в Палате общин с 1977 по 1984 год. Он является бывшим парламентским секретарем министра труда и бывшего парламентского министра занятости и иммиграции.
В 2004 году он побежал на федеральных выборах в качестве «звездного» кандидата в Либеральную партию Канады в ходе катания в Боупут, но был избит от блока Квебекоаса кандидатом Кристиана Симарда , проиграв по отношению почти 2: 1.
On August 2, 2005, Dawson was appointed to the Canadian Senate on the recommendation of Prime Minister Paul Martin. He represented the Liberal Party of Canada in the Upper Chamber until Justin Trudeau's removal of Liberal Senators from the Canadian Liberal caucus in 2014.[1]
With the Senate Liberal Caucus facing losing official parliamentary caucus status in 2020 with a third of its caucus facing mandatory retirements on their turning age 75, Senator Joseph Day announced that the Senate Liberal Caucus had been dissolved and a new Progressive Senate Group formed in its wake,[2][3] with the entire membership joining the new group, including this senator.[2]
With Day's mandatory retirement in January 2020, on December 12, 2019, Jane Cordy tweeted[4] that her colleagues in the PSG had selected her as the new leader, ostensibly effective that same date.[4] Additionally, she subsequently announced[5] later that day Terry Mercer would be moving into the Whip/Caucus Chair role, that Dawson would be become the new Deputy Leader, and that the interim monikers were being removed at the same time.[5] Dawson resigned from the Senate on February 8, 2023.[6]
He has two daughters, Cindy and Kathryn-Anne, and a son named Julian.
