Tony Peter Clement, PC MP (born January 27, 1961) is a Canadian federal politician and Member of Parliament of the Conservative Party of Canada.
Clement has served as an Ontario cabinet minister, including as Minister of Health and Long-Term Care under premiers Mike Harris and Ernie Eves and President of the Treasury Board under Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
Moving to federal politics, he was a candidate for the leadership of the Conservative Party of Canada after its formation from the merger of the Progressive Conservative and Canadian Alliance parties in 2003. He lost to Stephen Harper. Clement won the seat of Parry Sound—Muskoka in the 2006 federal election, defeating incumbent Liberal cabinet minister Andy Mitchell. The Conservatives formed government in that election and Clement was appointed Minister of Health and Minister for FedNor. He was re-elected despite the Conservative defeat in the 2015 election. On July 12, 2016, Clement announced his second bid for the leadership of the Conservative Party but withdrew on October 13, 2016.
