Leslie Hancock
About
Marcus Leslie Hancock (March 10, 1892 – December 2, 1977) was an English-born horticulturist and politician in Ontario, Canada. He represented Wellington South in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario from 1943 to 1945. He was initially a Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF) MPP until late 1944 after he and fellow CCF MPP Arthur Nelson Alles endorsed a proposal by A. A. MacLeod, leader of the Communist Labor-Progressive Party for a coalition between the LPP, the Liberals and the CCF to oust the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party government of George A. Drew. Hancock and Alles left the CCF caucus to sit as Independent Labour MPPs after CCF party leader Ted Jolliffe rejected the LPP proposal. Hancock was sometimes listed as an Independent Farmer-Labour MPP during this period. Hancock did not run for re-election in the 1945 Ontario general election.
