Edward Michener (August 18, 1869 – June 16, 1947) was a politician from Alberta, Canada. He served as a member of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta and senator from Alberta.

Early life

Edward Michener was born on August 18, 1867, to Jacob and Eliza Michener in Tintern, Ontario. He was educated at St. Catharines Collegiate Institute and post-secondary studies at Victoria University, University of Toronto and Wesley College. He was married to Mary E. Roland on September 15, 1897, and together had four sons and four daughters.[1] Michener's son Roland Michener served as Governor General of Canada.

Political life

Michener was acclaimed as mayor of Red Deer, District of Alberta, in the 1904 mayoral race. He held that position for two terms until 1906.

Michener was elected as an independent in the 1909 Alberta election. In 1910 after Richard Bennett resigned to run for the House of Commons of Canada, he crossed the floor to join the Conservatives. He became Leader of the Official Opposition in Alberta and leader of the Alberta Conservative party.

Prime Minister Robert Borden advised the appointment of Michener to the Senate of Canada in 1918.[1]

Michener died on June 16, 1947, in Ottawa.[2]
