  1. References

Herbert Sulkers (September 25, 1889[1]—October 16, 1948[2]) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada. He served in the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1936 to 1941, as a representative of the Cooperative Commonwealth Federation (CCF).[1]

Sulkers was born in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and received his early education in that city. He came to Canada in 1907, and continued his education in Winnipeg. Sulkers worked as a florist, and was president of the Manitoba Vegetable Growers Association. From 1924 to 1936, he served as a school trustee. In 1912, he married Gertrude Bergman.[2] Sulkers also served as president of the Manitoba Sugar Beet Growers' Association.[2]

In the 1935 federal election, Sulkers ran as a candidate of the federal Cooperative Commonwealth Federation in Springfield. He finished a close second against Liberal candidate John Mouat Turner.[3]

Sulkers was elected to the Manitoba legislature in the 1936 provincial election, in which the CCF ran a joint campaign with the provincial Independent Labour Party (ILP). He defeated Liberal-Progressive cabinet minister Robert Hoey[1] by 665 votes.

The CCF entered an all-party coalition government in 1940, and Sulkers briefly served as a government backbencher. He was defeated by Liberal-Progressive candidate Nicholas Stryk in the 1941 provincial election.[1]

He died at home in Winnipeg at the age of 59.[4]
