Thomas Wilson Crothers

Thomas Wilson Crothers (January 1 1850 – December 10 1921) was a Canadian politician.

Born in Northport, Canada West, he was a lawyer and teacher before being elected to the Canadian House of Commons for the Ontario riding of Elgin West in the 1908 federal election. A Conservative, he was re-elected in 1911 and as a Unionist in 1917. From 1911 to 1918, he was the Minister of Labour. In October 1921, he was called to the Canadian Senate representing the senatorial division of Ontario. He died in office just two months later in December 1921.
