Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use Canadian English Шаблон:Infobox officeholder Clarence Wentworth Anderson (February 17, 1871 – December 16, 1944) was a Canadian politician. He represented the electoral district of Guysborough County in the Nova Scotia House of Assembly from 1920 to 1925, and 1928 to 1937. He was a member of the Nova Scotia Liberal Party.[1]

Born in 1871 at Sherbrooke, Nova Scotia, Anderson was a merchant by career.[2] He married Annie Baker in 1894, and then Katherine Clifford MacLennan.[2] He was a municipal councillor, serving from 1908 to 1920 as warden for the Municipality of the District of St. Mary's.[2]

Anderson entered provincial politics in 1920, when he was elected in the dual-member Guysborough County riding with Liberal James Cranswick Tory.[3] Both Anderson and Tory were defeated when they ran for re-election in 1925,[4] but Anderson regained the seat in the 1928 election, serving with Liberal Michael E. Morrison.[5] In the 1933 election, Anderson was re-elected in the now single-member Guysborough riding.[6] In September 1933, Anderson was appointed to the Executive Council of Nova Scotia, serving until he resigned from cabinet in April 1937.[2] He did not reoffer in the 1937 election.[1] Anderson died at Halifax on December 16, 1944.[2]
