Tristan Milligan is a sophomore (Grade 10) at Degrassi Community School. Tristan is out and proud and has his eyes set on running the school. Seriously, he wants it all: school musicals, dance committees and top of the Power Squad pyramid. Fiercely loyal, Tristan is a good friend to have. He had a conflict with his dad, and due to certain events from this his father got hit by a car and died. Tristan blamed himself, but with the help of his best friend Tori, he realized that it wasn't his fault. He is best friends with Tori Santamaria, Maya Matlin, and Hayley Michaels and friends with Blair Tilman, Zig Novak, Austin Matthews, Beck Samuels, Edward Worthington, West Bhandt and Randy Watson. He was also friends with Campbell Saunders before he committed suicide and Zac Andrews before he tragically passed away during surgery after getting hit by a car. He also had a strong dislike for Trent Michaels, but they're on better terms now. He is the younger brother of Owen Milligan. He is portrayed by Lyle Lettau.
