Biographical history
David Leadbeater is an Oxford educated economist. He was elected to City Council in 1974 at the age of 27.

Often described as a Marxist, his positions on most issues tended to the left of the rest of Council. Mr. Leadbeater came from a prominent Anglican family in the city, his father was the Reverend Tom Leadbeater of Holy Trinity Church. He did not seek reelection in 1977 and returned to teaching economics at the University of Alberta.
