Charles Edward John Bennett Ecclestone was born in Bracebridge, Ontario. He attended public school in his home town and high school primarily in Peterborough. After that he attended Trent University (B.Sc. [Honours] 1969), Queen's University in Kingston (LL.B., 1978; Ph.D., 1981) and he has also completed his LL.M. at Toronto's York University. John has practiced law in Kingston since July 1980. He now lives in Kitchener with his wife, Elizabeth Anne (Beth), and between them they have five children, all of whom are now independent adults ranging in age from their 30s to their 40s, and thirteen grandchildren who are much younger!

There is very little which is not of interest to John. His special concerns range from duplicate bridge to politics to baseball to theoretical physics. He is never bored.

After 40 years practicing law in Kingston, John officially retired from the practice of law on 31 July 2020.
