Have you googled his name to find info like this:

Arthur Walter Adams White (October 10, 1907 – July 9, 1973) was a Canadian lawyer and politician.

White was born in East Zorra Township to James and Floria White (nee Adams). His parents had emigrated from England in 1903 and moved to Galt (now Cambridge, Ontario) in 1908, when Arthur was a year old. Arthur White attended the Galt Collegiate Institute and St. Michael's College School in Toronto. He went on to earn a B.A. from the University of Toronto and obtained a law degree from Osgoode Hall in 1938.

White established a legal practice in Galt in 1939, and became involved in civic life. In the 1953 federal election, he was elected under the Liberal Party of Canada banner to represent the riding of Waterloo South. Defeated in the 1957 election, he returned to Galt politics and as a member of the Parks Board campaigned fiercely for Galt's 1959 purchase of the farm which is now Churchill Park.

Arthur White Street in Cambridge, Ontario is named for him.

Canadian censuses here:

Click on "proof page" on 1901 and "split screen" on 1911 to see originals.

Yes I would bet this is correct information where did you find it? I ve been trying canadian census with no luck

Could this be the family in 1911 even though father is Jos. Arthur?
Galt, Waterloo South, Ontario.
White Jos. Arthur M Head M Aug 1877 36
White Flora F Wife M Dec 1877 33
White Violet May F Daughter S Sep 1905 5
White Arthur M Son S Oct 1907 3

I looked at the original and believe the father is Jas. Arthur. (Jas. being short for James.)
The parents were born England and emigrated 1904.

Trying to find Arthur b.1907 Ontario Canada had sister Violet.Parents James White & Floria Adams emigrated to Canada in 1903
