Born in London, England, in 1944 Gablemann moved to Canada at a young age and grew up in B.C.'s labour movement, eventually becoming a founding member of B.C.'s New Democratic Party.

He was first elected as an MLA for North Vancouver-Seymour in 1972, as Dave Barrett led the NDP to its first government.
