Theodore Arthur Burrows

Theodore Arthur Burrows (August 15, 1857 – January 18, 1929) was a politician and office-holder in Manitoba, Canada.

Burrows was born in Ottawa, Canada West (now Ontario), where his grandfather had been a pioneer settler.

He entered the lumber business in 1879, and subsequently played a major role in developing the industry in Manitoba's northwest.

In addition to his political career, he was also appointed a land commissioner of the Canadian Northern Railway in 1896, holding the position until 1904 and overseeing increased settlement in the Dauphin region.

Running as a Liberal in the federal riding of Dauphin, he was elected unopposed, and supported Prime Minister Wilfrid Laurier in parliament for the next four years.
