Albert Blellock Hudson (1875-1947) was a politician, lawyer and judge from Manitoba, Canada, who earned his law degree from the University of Manitoba in 1898, was named King's Counsel in 1914, and founded the firm Hudson, Ormond and Marlatt. He served in the Manitoba legislature as a Liberal from 1914 to 1920, holding the post of Attorney-General under Premier Tobias Norris from 1915 to 1917, and later represented Winnipeg South in the House of Commons as an Independent Liberal from 1921 to 1925. On March 24, 1936, Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King appointed him, at age 60, to the Supreme Court of Canada to fill a western vacancy, and he served as a Puisne Justice until his death in 1947.
