John Nunziata (born January 4, 1955) is a lawyer and former Canadian politician. He first served as an Alderman in the Borough of York from 1978 to 1982. He served three terms as a Liberal MP in the Canadian House of Commons from York South-Weston and in 1997 was elected as an Independent MP. He practices law in the city of Toronto, specializing in government relations. ==Background== Nunziata was born on January 4, 1955 in Revelstoke, British Columbia. He is the fifth of seven children of Italian immigrant parents. In April 1963, his family moved from British Columbia to Toronto where he attended grade school at Regal Road Public School and Rockcliffe Senior Public School. He attended high school at Runnymede Collegiate Institute in Toronto where he was elected President of the Student Council in 1973. He was awarded the W.E.H Cross trophy for his leadership while at Runnymede. In 2002, he was inducted into the Runnymede Collegiate Hall of Fame.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Runnymede Collegiate's Wall of Fame )〕 Nunziata graduated from York University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science in 1977 and went on to earn his Bachelor of Laws degree from Osgoode Hall Law School in 1980. He was called to the Ontario bar in 1982. Upon graduation, he established the law firm of Nunziata, Anand & Levy. Nunziata's sister, Frances Nunziata, was the last mayor of the city of York, Ontario before it was merged into the "megacity" of Toronto, and is now a Toronto city councillor for Ward 11 York South-Weston. On October 20, 2008, Nunziata was arrested by Toronto Police and charged with assaulting his ex-wife's boyfriend, Murray Milthorpe, allegedly by kicking him in the buttocks. Nunziata said, "I didn't kick him. I don't know how he got the bruise on his ass, but I mean, he deserves an ass-kicking, but I didn't give it to him." Subsequently, Nunziata pressed charges against Milthorpe whom he claimed was “bugging” his 14-year-old daughter at a rink where Nunziata's son was playing hockey. These charges were later dropped as the police found no evidence in support of Nunziata's allegations. Following a two day trial during which he admitted under oath that he had indeed kicked Milthorpe, Nunziata was found guilty of assault, and guilty on one count of breaching a court order. Nunziata was ordered to have no contact with his victim and sentenced to one year of probation and ordered to take anger management courses. In January 2012 the Law Society of Upper Canada started disciplinary hearings against Nunziata for lying under oath.〔 In October 2012 the Law Society found him guilty of lying and fined him $5,000 plus $6,021.41 in costs for his conduct. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John Nunziata」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
