Sudbury-based architect and master lecturer at Laurentian University’s McEwen School of Architecture (MSoA), Ted Wilson, has been named the new president for the governing Council of the Ontario Association of Architects .

Wilson was acclaimed to the one-year position at the Ontario Association of Architects Council meeting in Toronto on January 23, 2025.

“I first ran for Council to engage in larger thinking about architects, the public interest, and where the profession can continue to be effectively guided by a regulator,” said Wilson. “Now as president, I’m eager to keep listening, to use data as a resource, and to be mindful and respectful in engagement. I know this is a long run and want to take the time to do it well. The public and the profession deserve it.”

Wilson has always been passionate about architecture and is a graduate of the University of Waterloo. His dream of becoming an architect dates back to childhood, as he was inspired by seeing the design work of his friend’s father.
