Donald Marto Malinowski CM (March 14, 1924[1] in Lwow, Poland[2] – May 16, 2003[1]) was a priest of the Polish National Catholic Church[3] and politician in Manitoba, Canada.
[2] Malinowski served as a chaplain at the Royal Canadian Legion,[3] and was named the parish priest at St. Mary's National Catholic Church in north-end Winnipeg.
In the 1969 election, he won an easy victory in the north-end Winnipeg riding of Point Douglas, and became a backbench supporter of the NDP government of Edward Schreyer.
[1] In the provincial election of 1973, Malinowski faced an unusual challenge from independent candidate Joseph Borowski, who had served in Schreyer's cabinet before leaving the NDP in 1972.
Borowski ran as a social conservative, criticizing the NDP government's toleration of abortion services and suggesting that Malinowski was guilty of hypocrisy in this regard.
