On March 13, 2024, Cam Hantiuk passed away peacefully in Medicine Hat, AB surrounded by his family. He resided in Chestemere, AB and leaves to cherish his adored wife Lisa Hantiuk and mother, Joyce, of Vegreville, AB; in-laws Alan and Sue of England; his brother, Doug and partner Marek; sisters, Pam (Wayne and Brett) and Janice; stepchildren, Marcia (Cory), Craig (Steph); and his adored grandchildren, Ellis and Forrest.

Cam was born in Calgary, AB on November 20, 1962, and was raised in Vegreville, AB. After completing high school, he attended the University of Alberta where he received his degree in political science which led to his love of politics. At the time of his passing, Cam worked as the director of Public Affairs, Western Canada, Waste Management. Cam was an avid golfer and curler. He loved to sing and play his guitar where he always had a song to fit the occasion. Cam always brought a sense of humor, and his quick wit was unprecedented. He was a devoted husband to Lisa, and they loved fiercely. Cam practiced a strong work ethic and put his all into everything he would set his mind to. He had a passion for his family and friends where Cam was able to bring out the best in others. Everyone around Cam felt valued and loved.
Ellis (5) and Forrest (17mths) adored their Gigi. Ellis had many memorable sleepovers. Gigi and Ellis would play for hours, and her favorite thing was dive bombing onto him and reading bedtime stories together.
Special thank you to the Medicine Hat Regional Hospital 4W for your amazing care during Cam’s final moments. Dr. Brahminia and your Calgary team – a heartfelt thank you for your compassion over the last few years.
As per Cam’s wishes, a celebration of life will be held in spring at a later date.
