James Allum


James Allum is a Canadian politician, who was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba in the 2011 election. He represented the electoral district of Fort Garry-Riverview as a member of the New Democratic Party of Manitoba caucus.
On November 3, 2014, Allum was appointed as Minister of Justice after then-minister Andrew Swan, along with four other ministers, resigned from cabinet over concerns about Premier Greg Selinger's leadership.
Allum announced in late 2018 that he would not run in the next provincial election, wherein Fort Garry-Riverview was due to be abolished by electoral redistribution. Allum is the only MLA for Fort Garry-Riverview.
