He was first elected at the Coast Chilcotin riding in the 1974 general election and served in the 30th Canadian Parliament. In the 1979 election, riding boundaries were changed and Pearsall campaigned in the Comox—Powell River riding, but lost to Ray Skelly of the New Democratic Party. Pearsall died while on a trip to Ottawa in 1982, at the age of 67.[1]
