John holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Public Affairs and Policy Management (BPAPM) from Carleton University and a Master’s Degree in Public Administration (MPA) from Queen’s University.

John was elected as the Member of Parliament for Perth—Wellington in the 42nd General Election on October 19, 2015 and re-elected in the 43rd General Election on October 21, 2019.
