SERGE LECLERC,
BA (Hon) Sociology/Social Work
Serge LeClerc has been on an amazing journey
in his life – a journey that is chronicled
in his book, “Untwisted: An Extraordinary
Journey of Overcoming and Redemption”. The
book details his transformational personal
experiences as a product of rape born in an
abandoned building to a teenage girl, moving
from a poverty-stricken inner-city youth to
a young offender, a runaway street kid, a
gang leader and a drug king-pin who served a
total of 21 years in some of Canada's
toughest prisons while battling a
twenty-year drug addiction, to his
remarkable overcoming and present
citizenship.
Serge received a precedent setting Canadian
National Pardon in the year 2000 due to his
exemplary work for youth, their families,
and their communities both in Canada and
abroad. This Pardon, enforced by an Act of
Legislation, honours his outstanding life
change, present citizenship, and legally
exonerates him from all past criminal
convictions and social stigma. He is
honoured to be an Associate Member of all of
the Crime Stoppers Chapters of Saskatchewan.
Serge initiated his university studies in
Sociology and Social Work while still in
prison, beginning from the unenviable
position of a formal education that
consisted of nothing more than Grade Five.
While on parole, Serge attended the
University of Waterloo as a full-time
student and graduated on the Dean’s Honour
Roll for Outstanding Achievement, and an
acknowledge expert in penology and
corrections; crime, gang and societal issues
within the culture of poverty, poly
substance abuse and addiction, and the
reality facing modern day youth and their
families.
Serge has also spent a considerable part of
his career speaking about his life
experiences. He is a dynamic motivational
keynote and expert speaker and has spoken to
more than 3,000,000 people across Canada and
the United States. Serge has shared his
story with a wide variety of audiences
including, young people, parents, police
services, educators, mental health
professionals, community leaders. He has
spoken to university lectures, professional
development seminars, school assemblies,
church services and youth rallies.
Serge was first elected as the MLA for
Saskatoon Northwest in the 2007 provincial
election. He is one of very few individuals
elected to any government in North America
after serving time in prison. Following the
formation of a Saskatchewan Party
government, Premier Brad Wall asked Serge to
serve as Legislative Secretary to the
Minister of Corrections, Public Safety and
Policing, Corrections Facilities Initiative.
