He was also a Labour candidate for the Canadian House of Commons in Winnipeg North winning 565 votes. In 1933, he was elected to Winnipeg's city council as an alderman, a position he held until 1960 becoming the longest serving elected Communist alderman in North America. When he retired, fellow Communist Joseph Zuken succeeded him on City Council and was to serve until the 1980s.Penner was very popular among his constituents in the city's impoverished north end and attracted support from across party lines.
