Joseph Dumas

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Joseph Pierre Dumas (died 1950) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada. He served in the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1915 to 1920 as a member of the Liberal Party.

Dumas was elected to the Manitoba legislature in the 1915 provincial election, defeating a Conservative and an independent Liberal candidate in the constituency of St. Boniface. The Liberal Party won this election, and Dumas served as a backbench supporter of Tobias C. Norris's administration for the next five years.

He ran for re-election in the 1920 campaign, but finished third against Conservative-Independent candidate Joseph Bernier.
