Henry Oscar Waffle
Henry Oscar Waffle (1918 — March 7, 1980) was a Canadian politician who was reeve of Etobicoke, Ontario from 1957 to 1962. While reeve he advocated for the construction of monorails and was accused of conflict of interest after the city purchased dump trucks from his dealership. In 1973, he filed a lawsuit alleging Dennis Flynn could not be elected mayor of Etobicoke because he worked for the city of Toronto, causing a new election to be held. He died in 1980.
