Rob Moore (born May 14, 1974) is a Canadian lawyer and politician. Moore was born in Gander, Newfoundland.
He ran in the 2000 federal election for the Canadian Alliance in the New Brunswick riding of Fundy—Royal. He finished third, with 8,392 votes behind John Herron of the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada.
Following the merger of the Progressive Conservatives and the Canadian Alliance into the new Conservative, Moore ran as the Conservative candidate in the 2004 election in the reshaped riding of Fundy against Herron, who had quit the Conservatives and was running as a Liberal. Moore won the rematch.
In the 2006 election, Moore ran against three opponents: Eldon Hunter of the Liberal Party of Canada, Rob Moir of the New Democratic Party, and Patty Donovan of the Green Party of Canada.
Nevertheless, he successfully retained his seat in Parliament. His Conservative Party, headed by Stephen Harper, won a minority government against the ruling Liberals who had been headed by Paul Martin.
