Doug Treleaven is seeking your support to represent you as your Member of Parliament in the riding of Kitchener-Conestoga. He is dedicated to bringing Common Sense back to Canada through responsible government, sound fiscal principles, making life more affordable, and protecting our most vulnerable.
Doug was born and raised in a loving, middle-class home in Fergus, Ontario. His dad was a mechanic, his mom was their church secretary, and both his parents instilled in him strong values of faith, family, freedom, and hard work from a young age. After attending the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University, paying for school by working co-op jobs, he led the Waterloo-based audit technology team of a global risk consulting firm. Doug moved to St. Jacobs in 2009, completed his Masters in Business Administration (MBA) in 2011, and is currently pursuing his Doctorate in Business Administration specializing in Finance.
In 2013, Doug founded ThinkLP, a fraud prevention software company, and received multiple awards, including being named one of Canada's Fastest Growing Companies. Doug chose the difficult path of bootstrapping the company, and instead of accepting external investment, he chose to invest and risk his own savings to pursue entrepreneurial success. Doug served as Founder & CEO for a decade, leading rapid global growth while serving some of the world's most recognized companies, and led a successful exit in early 2023.
Doug understands hard work, dedication, leadership, teamwork, job creation, and what it takes to win on the national and global stage. Doug has successfully created great-paying Canadian jobs while growing the economy by exporting Canadian-developed technology to the rest of the world.
