Markham - Unionville
Adam Poon
Adam Poon is a native of Hong Kong, and a graduate of National Taiwan
University with a B. Sc. in Mechanical Engineering. He immigrated to
Canada in 1989 and has lived in Markham, Ontario since 1994. His wife
has worked for Bank of Montréal for 19 years and their only son is
starting at McMaster University this fall. Like most Markham residents,
Adam wish to make our community the best it can be for us and for our
children, for generations to come.
Adam is an industrial engineer
who has worked in a variety of industries, including manufacturing,
electronic publishing, financial services, information technology,
retail, and medicine. He also has extensive experience in community
involvement and volunteering. He has served as president of a university
student association, an alumni executive, coordinator of leadership
development groups, director of business associations, and organizer of
fundraising functions for St. John Ambulance and The Heart and Stroke
Foundation. He has also served on committees for the YMCA, the Town of
Markham, parent council, and school board.
We recognize that our
relationship with our environment has gone wrong, so let’s bring in
solutions. Nature can provide life and wealth indefinitely only if
engaged sustainably—doing so is the policy of the Green Party alone.
Without Green Party representation in Parliament, Canadian health and
quality of life are being squandered.
Adam chose Canada because
of its values and heritage, so he is eager to protect it. He chose
Markham because of its environment and quality of life, so he wants to
improve it. He chose Green because we must work together to protect
Mother Earth for our children, sustain it for future generations.
Adam Poon is the nominated candidate for the Green Party of Canada in the riding of Markham-Unionville
