Reginald Otto Lissaman (April 24, 1908〔 in Brandon, Manitoba – August 14, 1974) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada. He was a member of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1952 to 1969, sitting as a member of the Progressive Conservative Party.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MLA Biographies - Deceased )〕 The son of Frank C. Lissaman,〔 Lissaman was educated in Brandon and Chicago, Illinois. He worked as a building contractor,〔 was a director on the Manitoba Hydro Board and sat on the Board of Directors for Brandon College. He was first elected to the Manitoba legislature in a 1952 by-election, scoring a fairly easy victory in the riding of Brandon City.〔 In the 1953 general election, he was re-elected〔 over Liberal-Progressive James Creighton by 451 votes. The Liberal-Progressives were in government during this period, and Lissaman sat as a member of the opposition. In 1953-54, he campaigned for the removal of Errick Willis as Progressive Conservative leader. The PCs won the 1958 election, and Lissaman was handily re-elected in the renamed Brandon riding. He won further easy victories in the elections of 1959 and 1962. In the 1966 election,〔 he was only narrowly re-elected over Liberal Terry Penton. Lissaman, to the surprise of many, was never appointed to cabinet. He did not seek re-election in 1969. He helped develop the International Peace Garden located on the border between North Dakota and Manitoba.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=832 11th Street )〕 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Reginald Lissaman」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
