Michael Starr

Michael Starr (November 14 1910-March 16 2000) was a Canadian politician and the first Canadian cabinet minister of Ukrainian descent. First elected to the House of Commons in 1952 as a Progressive Conservative, Starr was re-elected six times until he was defeated in the 1968 election. Starr served as Minister of Labour in the government of John George Diefenbaker from 1957 to 1963, and served as Opposition House Leader from 1965 to 1968. In 1967, Starr stood as a candidate at the PC leadership convention, but was eliminated on the second ballot. When Robert Stanfield became leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada in 1967, Starr became Leader of the Opposition for two months until Stanfield won a seat in the House through a by-election.
