Robert (Bob) Joseph Ogle, OC SOM (December 24, 1928 – April 1, 1998) was a Roman Catholic priest, broadcaster and Member of the Canadian House of Commons.
Born in Rosetown, Saskatchewan, he was ordained priest in 1953. He was elected to the House of Commons as a New Democratic Party candidate for the Saskatchewan riding of Saskatoon East in the 1979 federal election and was re-elected in the 1980 election. He did not run in 1984, when he was instructed by the Vatican not to be involved in politics.
He was the author of four books:
- Faculties of Military Chaplains (1957),
- When the Snake Bites the Sun (1977),
- North- South Calling (1986), and
- A Man of Letters (1990).
In 1989, he was made an Officer of the Order of Canada for "his tireless efforts to foster Canada's understanding of her role in global progress".[1] In 1995, he was awarded the Saskatchewan Order of Merit.
The St. Pius X Seminary at the University of Saskatchewan was renamed Ogle Hall after his death.
