Tony Campbell
had a 34-year career in the federal public service and served in three embassies and 11 federal departments and agencies that culminated in eight years in the Intelligence Secretariat in the Privy Council Office. Tony says he followed this up with a university-level academic and teaching career and international management consultancy with clients in more than 20 countries. After 10 years in that capacity, he decided to plunge into full-time studies that culminated in 2017 in a doctorate in philosophy and theology at the University of Ottawa/St. Paul at the age of 73. His dissertation was on Charles Taylor, a renowned Canadian political philosopher. He reports that his studies in this broad field were a direct result of a spark ignited by the wonderful Bill Garstang, to whom he refers as his “much-esteemed old-school Latin teacher” at SAC. Tony is married and has five children, two step-children, and 21 grandchildren. He and his wife, Allison, live in Ottawa, Ont.
