First elected to represent the Ontario riding of Algoma in the 1993 Canadian federal election, he went on to serve successor ridings Algoma—Manitoulin and latterly Algoma—Manitoulin—Kapuskasing.
Born in Blind River, Ontario, St. Denis is a former executive assistant, industrial engineer, and teacher.
