Bert Price (April 10, 1907 – September 24, 1986) was a business owner and political figure in British Columbia, Canada. He represented Vancouver-Burrard in the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia from 1952 to 1966 and from 1969 to 1972 as a Social Credit member.

He was born in Vancouver, British Columbia,[1] the son of Herbert Price and Florence Mills, natives of Wales. In 1929, Price married Hazel Winifred Brightmore. He operated a shoe service and a real estate company. Price served in the Royal Canadian Air Force during World War II. He was president of the Mount Pleasant Chamber of Commerce.[1] Price was defeated when he ran for reelection to the provincial assembly in 1966. In 1968, he ran unsuccessfully in the federal riding of Fraser Valley West; his son Ron was an unsuccessful candidate in the federal riding of Burnaby—Seymour in the same year.[2][3][4] He was re-elected to the B.C. Legislature in 1969 but was defeated a final time in the 1972 general election.

He died of cardiac arrest in 1986.[5]
