Well that's interesting!
A Winnipeg municipal politician known as the "Mayor of the North End," Rebchuk ran twice unsuccessfully (in 1958 and in 1969) for a seat in the Manitoba legislature. He was famed for his "Rebchukisms," such as "You've buttered your bread — now lie in it" or "A verbal agreement is not worth the paper it's written on."
