Judeline Kim Mary Tyabji (born 2 January 1965)[4] is a former British Columbia politician, who was the youngest elected Member of the Legislative Assembly[5] and the ex-wife of former provincial Leader of the Opposition Gordon Wilson.
Her father, Alan Tyabji, was an executive for Calona Wines, which owned Okanagan Vineyards Winery in Oliver, British Columbia.
[5] When she was 26 years old and pregnant with her third child, Tyabji earned what was described as a "surprise victory" in her first election win in October 1991 by defeating a Social Credit cabinet minister and a prominent NDP activist[5] to become the MLA for the newly created riding of Okanagan-East.
[1] Tyabji ran for municipal council for Powell River in 1999 and topped the polls, then served as councillor for two years and as director of the regional district.
This multiparty litigation continued until a 56-day trial began in 2015, ending in 2016, and resulting in a complete dismissal of all allegations against both Tyabji and Tugboat in 2017 by Madame Justice Dardi.
[11] Kaz Tyabji is a student at UBC's Allard School of Law and following these incidents was on the Dean's list at Vancouver Island University in Powell River.
