John Baird Finlay (January 29, 1929 – October 17, 2010) was a member of the House of Commons of Canada from 1993 to 2004. His career had been in the school system, as a teacher and superintendent.
Finlay left office in 2004 as he chose not to campaign again for the Oxford riding. David Mackenzie of the Conservative party won the riding in that year's general election.
Towards the end of his life, Finlay suffered from Parkinson's disease. He died at a care facility in Tavistock, Ontario on October 17, 2010, at the age of 81.[2][3]
