- Henry_Einarson abstract "Henry John Einarson (September 11, 1918 in Glenboro, Manitoba – January 8, 1992) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada. He was a Progressive Conservative member of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1966 to 1981.The son of Gudbrandur "Goodie" Einarson and Maria Sigvaldason, both natives of Iceland, Einarson was educated at local schools, and later worked as a farmer. He enlisted in the army in 1939 and served until the beginning of January 1946. He was stationed in Holland artillery gun at the Chalet at Columbia Ice Fields on April 1944. When he and many others arrived home from overseas, there was a period of adjustment and when younger brother Lloyd decided he did not want to stay on the farm, Henry bought it and eventually expanded it to a larger acreage. Returning from the war, he went into farming in the Rock Lake area, raising first‑class Hereford beef cattle and, in latter years, poultry to a lesser degree. He was elected to the Manitoba legislature in the provincial election of 1966, narrowly defeating Liberal Ronald Gardiner in the riding of Rock Lake. He was re-elected by a greater margin in the 1969 election, and again in the elections of 1973 and 1977. He was never called to cabinet but served with great distinction for a period of 15 years.[2] Einarson vehemently expressed his opposition to the introduction of the metric system, offended at having to report hectares instead of acres, hence the nickname Hectare stuck with Einarson.He was instrumental in getting the Frelsis (Liberty) Lutheran Church at Grund designated as a Historical site at NW 12-6-14W, R.M. of Argyle, Manitoba, Canada. Designation Date: October 29, 1990.Einarson retired from the legislature in 1981, when his riding was abolished. He did not return to politics thereafter. During his time in the legislature, he was a strong advocate for the Port of Churchill. Henry was a long‑time member of the Churchill board that dealt with the matters of concern for the operation of that port.He died at home in Glenboro at the age of 73.".
