Mike Bossio, MP, is a Canadian Liberal politician, who was elected to represent the riding of Hastings—Lennox and Addington in the House of Commons of Canada in the 2015 federal election.
Bossio earned a bachelor of arts degree in philosophy at York University. Since 1989, he has operated Boscan Consultants Inc., a consulting business that handles recruitment for telecommunications firms. From 1998 to 2000, he served as a councilor for Tyendinaga, Ontario. Other notable political involvement included leading a 15-year fight to oppose the creation of a large landfill in Tyendinaga.
In the 2015 federal election, he defeated longtime Conservative incumbent Daryl Kramp in what was considered a major surprise of the evening.
