He was born in Calder Bridge, Cumberland, the son of Jacob Benson and Letitia Barwise, and came to Canada with his parents in 1903.
Benson was defeated when he ran for reelection to the provincial assembly in 1934 as a Farmer-Labour Group candidate.
The following year, he was defeated when he ran as a CCF candidate in the Yorkton federal riding.
In 1950, after voting against the government on a number of issues, he left the CCF and sat as an independent in the assembly.
