He was elected at The Battlefords—Meadow Lake electoral district in the 1980 federal election and served in the 32nd Canadian Parliament. He left politics following the 1984 federal election in which he was defeated by John Kenneth Gormley of the Progressive Conservative party.
In the 1986 Saskatchewan provincial election, Anguish won the North Battleford riding for the provincial NDP.[3] He was re-elected there in 1991 when the NDP's Roy Romanow became premier.
