Jonathan Wilson is a Canadian actor, voice artist, comedian, and playwright, best known for his 1996 play My Own Private Oshawa. The play, a semi-autobiographical comedy about growing up gay in Oshawa, Ontario, was also optioned by Sandra Faire's SFA Productions for production as a film, which won an award at the Columbus International Film & Video Festival in 2002 before premiering as a television movie on CTV in 2005.

The show was also later developed into a short-run television series, This Sitcom Is...Not to Be Repeated, for The Comedy Network in 2001.
