Thomas Anderson Angus (September 19, 1915 – June 16, 2005) was a Canadian entomologist and politician. He was the longest continuously serving member of Sault Ste. Marie City Council, for 31 consecutive years from 1960 to 1991.[1] He served four terms as the chair of the Algoma Health Unit and served on the boards of governors of both Algoma University and Sault College, and was a director for the Federation of Canadian Municipalities. As a research scientist, he was credited with discovering a toxin-producing bacteria that led to the use of Bacillus thuringiensis as a pest control in forestry and agriculture.[2]
