He was a Conservative member of the House of Commons of Canada from 2011 to 2015. He represented the Toronto riding of York Centre. BackgroundAdler attended William Lyon Mackenzie Collegiate Institute, graduating in 1981. He graduated from the University of Toronto in 1984 and Carleton University Graduate School of Public Administration in Ottawa. He worked for Canadian Institute of International Affairs and was a trade representative in the Government of Ontario's office in Boston, Massachusetts. In 2003 he founded and chaired the Economic Club of Toronto.[1] PoliticsAdler was elected to the Canadian Parliament in the 2011 federal election, when he defeated the Liberal incumbent Ken Dryden.[2] In 2011, he was sued by a former business partner in the Economic Club of Toronto who claimed Adler owed him $140,000. A year later he settled the lawsuit.{{citation needed|date=May 2016}} In January 2014, he travelled with Harper on a trip to Israel. During a visit to the wailing wall, he urged an aide to the prime minister to allow him to get a photograph with Harper. He said, "It's the re-election! This is the million-dollar shot." The aide refused his request.[3] Adler was criticized during the 2015 federal election campaign for putting "son of a Holocaust survivor" on an election poster.[4] Adler has also claimed in biographical and campaign materials to be the first child of Holocaust survivors elected to the House of Commons, a claim that was challenged by former Liberal MP Raymonde Folco, who sat in the House of Commons from 1997 to 2011 and is also a child of survivors.[4] Adler's campaign page was changed on August 17 to omit references in his biography to being the first child of Holocaust survivors to be elected as an MP. Adler's campaign manager Georgeanne Burke told the National Post the claim was "an honest mistake," since Folco "never spoke publicly about her background."[5] Asked about Adler's behaviour, Folco told the Canadian Jewish News that she found it "disgusting" for Adler "to use the Holocaust in this way, for personal ends."[5] In the 2015 election, Adler was defeated by Liberal candidate Michael Levitt.[6] Electoral record{{Canadian election result/top|CA|2015|percent=yes|change=yes|expenditures=yes}}{{CANelec|CA|Liberal|Michael Levitt|20,109|46.9|+13.7|–}}{{CANelec|CA|Conservative|Mark Adler|18,893|44.0|-4.5|–}}{{CANelec|CA|NDP|Hal Berman|3,148|7.3|-8.6|–}}{{CANelec|CA|Green|Constantine Kritsonis|794|1.8|-0.5|–}}{{Canadian election result/total|Total valid votes/Expense limit|42,944|100.0 | |$198,299.74}}{{Canadian election result/total|Total rejected ballots|319|–|–}}{{Canadian election result/total|Turnout|43,263|–|–}}{{Canadian election result/total|Eligible voters|64,297}}{{CANelec/source|Source: Elections Canada[7][8]}}{{end}}{{Canadian election result/top|CA|2011|percent=yes|change=yes|expenditures=yes}}{{CANelec|CA|Conservative|Mark Adler|20,356|48.5|+10.5|$79,794.56}}{{CANelec|CA|Liberal|Ken Dryden|13,979|33.3|-10.2|$73,675.98}}{{CANelec|CA|NDP|Nick Brownlee|6,656|15.9|+3.8|$409.63}}{{CANelec|CA|Green|Rosemary Frei|979|2.3|-4.1|$342.41}}{{Canadian election result/total|Total valid votes/Expense limit|41,970 |100.0|$83,892.08}}{{Canadian election result/total|Total rejected ballots|350 | 0.1|–| }}{{Canadian election result/total|Turnout|42,320 | 60.3| +7.6| }}{{Canadian election result/total|Eligible voters| 70,216 |–|–| }}{{end}}References1. ^{{cite news |title=A policy wonk living in geek heaven |last=Hannon |first=Gerald |date=July 14, 2008 |newspaper=The Globe and Mail}} 2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.insidetoronto.com/news/local/article/1001620 |title=York Centre: Adler takes formerly safe Liberal seat |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110603181713/http://www.insidetoronto.com/news/local/article/1001620--york-centre-adler-takes-formerly-safe-liberal-seat |archivedate=June 3, 2011}} 3. ^{{cite news |title=Trip all about election |last=Maher |first=Stephen |newspaper=The Ottawa Citizen |date=January 22, 2014 |page=A2}} 4. ^1 {{cite web | url=http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/canadian-politics/mark-adler-son-of-a-holocaust-survivor | title=Conservative MP criticized for advertising that he is the ‘son of a holocaust survivor’ on campaign poster | publisher=National Post | date=17 August 2015 | accessdate=17 August 2015 | author=Donnelly, Aileen}} 5. ^1 {{cite news | url=http://www.cjnews.com/mazeltov?q=node/142453 | title=Is Mark Adler really the first MP born of Holocaust survivors? | work=Canadian Jewish News | date=August 17, 2015 | accessdate=August 17, 2015 | author=Csillag, Ron}} 6. ^{{cite web |url = http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2015/10/20/controversial-tory-incumbents-paul-calandra_n_8339924.html|title = 6 Controversial Tory Incumbents Who Lost (And 2 Who Didn't)|publisher = Huffington Post Canada|date = 20 October 2015|accessdate = 21 October 2015|author = Maloney, Ryan}} 7. ^Elections Canada – Confirmed candidates for York Centre, 30 September 2015 8. ^Elections Canada – Preliminary Election Expenses Limits for Candidates {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304045200/http://www.elections.ca/content2.aspx?section=can&dir=cand%2Fcanlim&document=index&lang=e |date=2016-03-04 }} External links
