In January 1981, he was promoted to Minister of Finance.Ransom did not serve long in this position, as Lyon's government fell to the NDP under Howard Pawley later in the year. Ransom, who was easily re-elected in the riding of Turtle Mountain, defeating Johannson by 3,115 votes. He ran for the party's leadership in 1983 as a representative of the party's rural/conservative wing, but was defeated on the second ballot by Gary Filmon, who was then regarded as a progressive. Subsequently, supporters of Ransom would allege that the Filmon camp encouraged third-place candidate Clayton Manness to run as a means of splitting the conservative vote.Ransom did not seek re-election in 1986. He subsequently became chairman of the Manitoba Hydro-Electric Board, and worked as a consultant in sustainable development.".
