Roger Ernest Bray (19 November 1875 – 23 October 1952) was a Canadian socialist and activist. In 1919, Bray became the primary spokesman for thousands of World War I returned soldiers dissatisfied with the government during the Winnipeg General Strike in Manitoba, Canada. Though apparently not an initial member of top strike leadership, Bray was a persuasive orator and by mid-June 1919 the Winnipeg Royal North West Mounted Police considered Bray "the most dangerous person in the City.” He was arrested with other strike leaders on June 17, 1919 on multiple charges of seditious conspiracy but later acquitted of almost all charges. Bray later became one of the organizers for the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF) a precursor political party to the New Democratic Party.
