Tobias C. Enverga Jr. (December 2, 1955 – November 16, 2017) was a Canadian senator representing the province of Ontario.

Early life and career

Enverga was born in the Philippines.[1] He earned a Bachelor of Arts in Economics from the Colegio de San Juan de Letran in the Philippines, a Masters Certificate in Project Management from the Schulich School of Business at York University, and a Computer Studies Certificate from Centennial College. At the time of his appointment, he was a project manager at the Bank of Montreal, where he has worked for more than 30 years.[2]

School trustee

He served as a school trustee on the Toronto Catholic District School Board until his appointment to the Senate and was the first Filipino-Canadian elected to public office in the city of Toronto.[1]

He was co-chair of the Asian Heritage Month Celebration for the Greater Toronto Area and was previously a director of the Canadian Multicultural Council - Asians in Ontario. He founded the Philippine Canadian Charitable Foundation and is a former president of the Philippine Independence Day Council.

Senator

Enverga was appointed to the Senate of Canada on September 6, 2012, where he sat as a Conservative.

He was the first Filipino-Canadian to sit in the Senate.[1] One of his primary focuses in the Senate was to advocate for people with Down syndrome, a condition that one of his daughters had.[1]
