Louis Adelbert LeBourdais (June 26, 1888[1] – September 27, 1947[2]) was a telegraph operator, life insurance agent[3] and political figure in British Columbia, Canada. He represented Cariboo in the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia from 1937 to 1948 as a Liberal.
He was the son of Adelbert LeBourdais and Eleanor Connick, and was educated in Clinton and New Westminster. LeBourdais married Kate-Elizabeth Pughe on April 17, 1912 at Larkin, British Columbia (halfway between Vernon and Armstrong). He lived in Quesnel.[3] LeBourdais had mining interests in the Barkerville area. He was also an amateur historian.[1] From 1941 to 1948, he was a member of a Liberal-Conservative coalition in the provincial assembly. LeBourdais died in office in 1947.[2]
LeBourdais Park in Quesnel was named after him.[4]
