Gay Cowbourne

Gay Cowbourne is a former city councillor in Toronto, Canada. She represented one of the two Scarborough East wards between 2003 and 2006.

Originally from Liverpool, England, she moved to Canada in 1976 when her husband, an electrical engineer, got a job with Ontario Hydro. A teacher by training, she became an adult literacy instructor and community activist. She became president of the Centennial Community and Recreation Association. In the 2003 municipal election, Cowbourne successfully challenged Ron Moeser, who had represented the ward for fifteen years.

She chose not to run for re-election in 2006 and Moeser won the seat again.
