Victor Anthony (Vic) Fedeli (born August 8, 1956) is a Canadian politician. He is the elected Conservative MPP for Nipissing,[1] and formerly served as mayor of North Bay, Ontario from 2003 to 2010.[1]
Educated at Conestoga College, Fedeli established his own local advertising agency, Fedeli Advertising, in North Bay in 1978. The company was later honoured by Profit magazine as one of the 50 best employers in Canada, and Fedeli served for many years on the city's Chamber of Commerce, as well as on numerous municipal and charitable boards and commissions in the city.
Fedeli was elected mayor in the 2003 municipal election. He did not take a salary from North Bay City Council, instead donating his entire mayoral salary to charity each year. He was reelected in the 2006 municipal election, fending off a comeback bid by former mayor Stan Lawlor.[2]
He also served on the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines' first Northern Development Council, a committee of Northern Ontario politicians which advises the ministry on economic development issues in the region, in 2005.[3]
In February 2011, Fedeli confirmed that he would run as the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario candidate for Nipissing in the 2011 provincial election.[4] He won the seat on election day over Liberal candidate Catherine Whiting, New Democratic candidate Henri Giroux and Green Party candidate Scott Haig.[1]
