Clive Montgomery Francis Planta (August 11, 1895–April 17, 1972) was a Canadian politician. He served in the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia from 1933 to 1937 from the electoral district of Peace River, a Non-Partisan Independent Group member. Running as a strict independent, he was defeated in his bid for a second term in the Legislature in the 1937 provincial election. He never did seek provincial office again.[1] He was the son of Canadian politician Albert Planta.[2] Planta later served as the manager of the Fisheries Council of Canada and as Deputy Minister of Fisheries for Newfoundland.[3]
