Owen C. Trainor (16 October 1894 – 28 November 1956) was a Progressive Conservative member of the House of Commons of Canada.
He was born in Moncton, New Brunswick and studied medicine at Saint Dunstan's College in Charlottetown, then at McGill University in Montreal. From there, Trainor became a physician in Winnipeg.[1]
He was elected to represent the Winnipeg South riding in the 1953 general election, which had become open following the retirement of MP Leslie Mutch.
