Background
Leluk was born in Hillcrest, Alberta, and educated at the University of Toronto and the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He worked as a pharmacist, and was executive assistant to the registrar of the Ontario College of Pharmacists from 1961 to 1969. Leluk was both a freemason and a Knight of Malta. He also served as President of the Ontario Tae Kwon-Do Association from 1974 to 1983, and was a founding executive director of the Council on Drug Abuse.
Politics
Leluk was elected to the Ontario legislature in the 1971 provincial election, in the Etobicoke constituency of Humber.[1] He was re-elected for York West in the elections of 1975,[2] 1977,[3] and 1981.[4] He was named Minister of Correctional Services in Bill Davis's government on April 10, 1981.[5] Leluk supported Frank Miller to succeed Davis in January 1985,[6] and was retained in his portfolio when Miller became Premier of Ontario on February 8, 1985.[7]
He was narrowly re-elected in the 1985 provincial election, defeating Liberal candidate Leonard Braithwaite by 715 votes.[8] The Progressive Conservatives were reduced to a tenuous minority government in this election. Leluk was named Minister of Citizenship and Culture on May 17, 1985,[9] but accomplished little in this position before the Miller government was defeated by a motion of non-confidence in June 1985.
Leluk served as an opposition member for two years, and did not run for re-election in 1987. He died in 1998.
