Christina Maria Mitas[1] is a Canadian politician, who was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario in the 2018 provincial election.[2] She represents the riding of Scarborough Centre as a member of the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario.
Before politics, Mitas worked as a teacher abroad and was President of the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education Alumni Association.[3]
As an MPP Mitas served on the Legislative Assembly Standing Committees on Estimates, Public Accounts, and the Legislative Assembly.[4] As part of a province-wide effort, Education Minister Stephen Lecce also named MPP Mitas as his advisor on strategies to fight bullying - in the role Mitas was tasked with speaking with students, parents, teachers and experts.[5]
Mitas received attention for the introduction of Bill 39, the Change of Name Amendment Act, which, if passed, would ban people on Ontario’s sex offender registry from changing their names.[6]
In May 2019, Mitas participated in a pro-life rally at Queen's Park hosted by March for Life, where she made a stage appearance.[7]
In August 2021, Mitas was identified as one of only two Ontario PC MPPs to have not received COVID-19 vaccinations. She was able to avoid expulsion from the PC caucus by producing a medical exemption letter from a physician.[8]
In September 2023, Mitas was elected as an Ontario representative to the Conservative Party of Canada National Council and was subsequently selected to be a Vice-President of the party.[9][10]
