Martin B. "Marty" Morantz (born April 7, 1962) is a Canadian politician, best known for being the Conservative Member of Parliament in the House of Commons of Canada, representing the riding of Charleswood—St. James—Assiniboia—Headingley from 2019 until his defeat in 2025. Morantz is also a lawyer, businessperson, and philanthropist.
Prior to serving in the House of Commons, Morantz served as city councillor for the Charleswood-Tuxedo-Whyte Ridge ward on Winnipeg City Council from 2014 to 2018 after his win in the 2014 Winnipeg municipal election. During his time on City Council, Morantz chaired both the Finance and Infrastructure committees and also served on the Executive Policy Committee.
In 2011, Morantz secured the Progressive Conservative Party of Manitoba nomination in River Heights. He ran in the 2011 Manitoba general election against incumbent, the then Manitoba Liberal Party leader, Jon Gerrard. He won more than eight percentage points more than the party's candidate in the riding had won in the 2007 provincial election but he came second to Gerrard.
