White was born in Chicago, Illinois in 1925 to Howard White and Margaret Johnson. He was educated at the University of Western Ontario earning a bachelor of arts, a business diploma and a master of arts in economics. After graduation he joined the Royal Canadian Navy in 1944 and served for two years during World War II. He worked for the Steel Company of Canada and he had owned small businesses in London, Ontario, the Canadian Industrial Supply Co Ltd, and, later, the Canada Financial Leasing Company. He was married to Beatrice Ivey and together they raised two daughters.
Politics
In 1959, White was elected as the Progressive Conservative candidate in the riding of London South. He served as a backbench supporter in the Leslie Frost Government. He was re-elected in London South three more times before retiring before the 1975 election.
White finished runner-up at both the World Open and the British Open in 2002. He won the PSA Masters title in 2003 (beating Thierry Lincou in the final 15–8, 17–15, 17–16). He also won the British National Championships in 2004 (beating Lee Beachill in the final 17–16, 17–14, 14–15, 15–8). White reached the World No. 1 ranking in March 2004.
White is known as the hardest hitter of the ball in the sport of squash. Quite frequently, he has achieved speeds of over 165 miles per hour (266km/h). One of his shots was clocked at 172 miles per hour, a record until 3 October 2011 when Cameron Pilley hit a shot that was recorded at 175 miles per hour. White was brought up in Australia, but represents Scotland in international squash.
John White (June 8, 1811 – May 3, 1897) was an Ontario lumber merchant and political figure. He represented Halton in the Canadian House of Commons as a Liberal member from 1867 to 1874.
Born in Omagh, County Tyrone, Ireland, in 1811, White came to Canada with his family in 1823 and was educated in Toronto. He served on the council for the Gore District and then on the council for Halton County. White was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario for Halton in 1851 then again in 1858 and served until Confederation. White was known as a horse breeder, and several horses owned by White and his brother James won the Queen's Plate, including the first running of this event. He also served as captain in the local militia.
White was married twice: to Mehitabel Post in 1836 and to Louisa Knight in 1846. He died in Milton at the age of 85.
