Well that's interesting!
Tanner served one term in the Yukon legislative assembly as the MLA for Whitehorse North from 1970 to 1974, at the time when it was still non-partisan. Living in British Columbia by the 1980s, he served as the Liberal MLA for Saanich North and the Islands from 1991 to 1996, not offering for a second term.
