The members of the 25th Manitoba Legislature were elected in the Manitoba general election held in June 1958. The legislature sat from October 23, 1958, to March 31, 1959.[1]

The Progressive Conservative Party led by Duff Roblin[1] formed a minority government.[2]

Douglas Lloyd Campbell of the Liberal-Progressive Party was Leader of the Opposition.[3]
