Norman Andrew (Norm) Davison (December 13, 1907 – June 28, 1990) was a Canadian politician. He was born in Everett, Ontario.[1]
A machinist by trade, Davison served four terms in the Ontario legislature from 1959 until his retirement in 1975. He was first elected as the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation Member for Provincial Parliament for Hamilton East in the 1959. He was re-elected in the 1963 provincial election for the Ontario New Democratic Party which had been formed through the merger of the CCF and the labour movement. In 1967, he was elected to the riding of Hamilton Centre, representing it for two terms before leaving the legislature at the 1975 provincial election when he retired.[2] He was succeeded by his son, Mike Davison, who held the riding in the 1975, 1977 and 1981 elections.[3] He died at the age of 82 in Hamilton on June 28, 1990.[4]
