Matthew James Stanbridge (1876[1] – May 20, 1939)[2] was a British-born Canadian politician who served as a member of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1920 to 1922.
He defeated Liberal incumbent Donald A. Ross[3] by 127 votes, and sat with the Labour parliamentary group in the legislative opposition for the next two years.
The Labour Party and its allies won eleven seats in the 1920 election, which occurred shortly after the Winnipeg General Strike of 1919.
Stanbridge, running for the Independent Labour Party in St. Clements,[3] finished fourth in a field of four candidates in his bid for re-election.
He attempted to return to the legislature in the 1927 provincial election as a "Farmer-Labour" candidate,[3] but finished a distant third against Progressive cabinet minister Robert Hoey.
