He represented South Regina in the Legislative Assembly of the Northwest Territories from 1891 to 1898 as a Conservative.[1] He was born in Ottawa, Canada West, the son of Alex Mowat, of Scottish descent. In 1871, he married Amelia M. Hoy. Mowat was a member of the Ottawa public school board. He came to the Northwest Territories in 1880[1] and opened the first store in Regina in 1882. Mowat served on the Regina town council and was mayor from 1886 to 1887.[2] With his brother Alex, also a partner in the Regina store, Mowat owned a large horse ranch near the current village of Avonlea.[3] While a member of the assembly, Mowat proposed that English be the sole language of instruction in schools in the Northwest Territories. A compromise was reached that allowed a course in French at the primary level.[4] He moved to British Columbia and so retired from Territorial Politics in the 1890s.
