Inez Trueman

Inez Geneva Trueman (née Gandrud; April 8, 1917 – August 22, 2015) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada.

She served as a Progressive Conservative member of the Manitoba legislature from 1969 to 1973, and later ran for the House of Commons of Canada.

The NDP won this election, and Trueman sat in the opposition benches, where she was the health and welfare critic.

[1] Trueman did not seek re-election to the provincial legislature after this, but ran for the federal Progressive Conservative Party in the national election of 1980 in the Winnipeg—Fort Garry riding.

She was again defeated by Lloyd Axworthy, by this time the incumbent MP running for the federal Liberals.
