Born in 1973, in Yaoundé, Cameroon, Jephte “Tiny” Olinga is a Canadian songwriter, actor, entrepreneur, and politician. He holds a degree in agricultural engineering, a master’s in agroecology, a master’s in international law, a certification from Quebec’s Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF), and has pursued a doctoral certificate in developmental biology.
As an actor in the 1990s and early 2000s, Tiny appeared in more than 20 films, including the acclaimed King Can Do Everything. Filmed in Saint Petersburg, Russia, and Paris, France, this production gave him the opportunity to share the screen with the renowned French actor Gérard Depardieu.
Currently, Tiny is the CEO of Atlas Invest Canada (AIC), a company specializing in the development of structured financial products. Formerly known as Leaders Marketing, this firm gained recognition as a MasterCard subcontractor for Canadian Tire Bank’s financial services and for its collaboration with World Animal Protection, a global nonprofit dedicated to animal welfare.
After seven years with the Liberal Party of Canada, Tiny made the decision to step away and join the People’s Party of Canada (PPC) just months after its creation, believing in its commitment to freedom and national sovereignty. He was selected as the PPC candidate for Longueuil–Charles-LeMoyne in the September 20, 2021, federal election.
Tiny Olinga is married and a father of two.
