Mike Radcliffe

Michael Frederick Carrington Radcliffe (born December 16, 1944) is a lawyer and former politician in Manitoba, Canada. He served as a member of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1995 to 1999, and was a cabinet minister in the government of Premier Gary Filmon from 1997 to 1999.

The son of Leslie Radcliffe and Edith Bole, he was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and holds a Bachelor of Arts degree and an LL.B. from the University of Manitoba. From 1970 to 1996, he was a partner in the firm of Baker, Radcliffe, Murray, Kovnats. Radcliffe was a freemason but is now the Grand Knight for the St. Ignatius Church council (#5808) of the Knights of Columbus. In 1974, he married Linda Anne Leach.

In 1912, Radcliffe's father was planning to travel on what turned out to be the final voyage of the RMS Titanic with his uncle Charles Sedgwick and aunt Adelaide, who were on their way to Mexico City. In the end, because of concerns about safety related to the Mexican Revolution, the uncle made the voyage alone; his body was never found.

In the Canadian general election of 1993, Radcliffe ran as a candidate of the Progressive Conservative Party in the riding of Winnipeg South Centre. The riding was held by Lloyd Axworthy at the time, and was considered as safe for Liberal Party of Canada; Radcliffe received only 3878 votes, against Axworthy's 25667.
