About Ben Lobb

Born 1976. Ben Lobb is a Canadian politician and business analyst.

Benjamin Thomas Lobb (born September 10, 1976) is a Canadian politician, who has represented the federal riding of Huron-Bruce in the House of Commons since 2008. He is a member of the Conservative Party of Canada.

Early life Ben was born and raised in Clinton, Ontario. He attended Lee University in Cleveland, Tennessee where he earned his B.Sc. in business administration.

Prior to being elected, Lobb worked in the Finance Department for D2L and also at Wescast Industries in Wingham, Ontario.

Political career Lobb was first elected to the Canadian House of Commons in 2008 and has subsequently been re-elected in 2011, 2015, 2019, 2021, and 2025. Since first being elected, Lobb has served on a number of committees, including as Chair of the Standing Committee on Health. Lobb was named the Shadow Minister for Digital Government on October 13, 2022 by Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre.

In February 2021, Lobb was the sole Conservative MP to vote in favour of an NDP-proposed motion to take a first step towards developing a national pharmacare system. The bill, proposed by Peter Julian, would have established the conditions for federal financial contributions to provincial drug insurance plans.

In the 44th Parliament, Lobb introduced Private Member's Bill, C-234 also known as An Act to amend the Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act. Lobb's Bill sought to remove the carbon tax off propane and natural gas for agriculture functions such as heating livestock barns and drying grains. The Bill progressed to the Senate and was returned to the House of Commons with amendments, but died with the prorogation of Parliament. Lobb also jointly-seconded Bill C-350, An Act to amend the State Immunity Act, the Criminal Code and the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act.

Each summer, Lobb runs a minor baseball camp for youth in his riding to foster their skills development in the sport. The two-day camps in Clinton and Kincardine regularly have a headlining instructor who previously played in the MLB.
