Bob Rose (Manitoba Liberal)

Bob Rose (Manitoba Liberal)

Robert D. (Bob) Rose (born July 16, 1931 in Winnipeg, Manitoba) is a politician in Manitoba, Canada. He was a member of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1988 to 1990, representing the Winnipeg riding of St. Vital for the Manitoba Liberal Party. He should not be confused with another Bob Rose, who sat as a Progressive Conservative in the Manitoba legislature from 1990 to 1995.

Rose worked as a broker before entering political life. He began his political career as a school trustee, and also served as a Winnipeg City Councillor from 1986 to 1988.

Rose was elected to the Manitoba legislature in the 1988 provincial election, defeating Progressive Conservative candidate Paul Herriot by over 800 votes. The Liberals increased their legislative strength from one to twenty in this election, and Rose sat as a member of the official opposition for the next two years. In the election of 1990, he was defeated by Tory Shirley Render by 122 votes, amid a general decline in support for his party. He has not sought a return to political life since this life.
