词条 | Maurice Ridley |
释义 |
The son of John Sutherland Ridley, he was born in Manitou, Manitoba, and later worked as a cattle buyer. Ridley served in the Canadian Army during World War II. From 1948 to 1957, he was mayor of Manitou.[2] Ridley was first elected to the legislature in a by-election held on November 14, 1957, in the constituency of Manitou—Morden.[1] He handily defeated his Liberal-Progressive opponent David Lumgair, in a seat that was considered safe for the Progressive Conservative Party. He was re-elected in the 1958 provincial election, in which the Tories under Dufferin Roblin formed a minority government. Ridley was a government backbencher during this period.[1] Returned again by a landslide in the 1959 election, he was appointed to cabinet on December 21, 1959, as Minister of Municipal Affairs. His time in office was short,[1] as he died in Manitou in late 1960.[2] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url=https://www.gov.mb.ca/hansard/members/mla_bio_deceased.html#R0 |title=MLA Biographies - Deceased |work=Legislative Assembly of Manitoba |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140330185239/http://www.gov.mb.ca/hansard/members/mla_bio_deceased.html |archivedate=2014-03-30 |df= }} {{DEFAULTSORT:Ridley, Maurice}}2. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.mhs.mb.ca/docs/people/ridley_m.shtml |work=Memorable Manitobans |title=Maurice E.
