About Weidong

I am running to be your Conservative candidate in Willowdale. 

I was a small business owner and have run a successful dental practice for 20 years. 

In 2022, I was inspired to run for public office for the first time to push back against the Toronto District School Board’s (TDSB) admissions lottery for specialized programs that has harmed so many students under the guise of equity. In the largest upset of the municipal election, I was elected as TDSB Trustee for Willowdale, defeating Board Chair and 8 year incumbent Alexander Brown on a platform of change. 

Since being elected, I have built a strong track record advocating for financial transparency, efficient spending and good governance at the TDSB.

I graduated with a DDS and PhD from the University of Toronto and hold a Hon. BSc from the University of Guelph. I am a Fellow/Master of the Academy of General Dentistry and Fellow of the American Board of Oral Implantology/Implant Dentistry.
