When Rob Hamilton held office (lines, coloured by office) and the elections they contested without winning (dots). Terms are drawn from election records alone: a line runs from each election to the next one for that office — or ends early where winning a different office ended the term — so a resignation for any other reason would not appear here. Hover or tap any mark for the detail; the table below is the record.

Federal and provincial rows are a different level of government on a different ballot, and (per Elections Canada and Elections Ontario's own results) their counts are never to be compared with a municipal count. See the full riding history for how Barrie's ridings have been drawn and renamed since 1999.
