Canada THE UNIVERSITY OF MANITOBA FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES ***** COPYRIGHT PERMISSION The Federal Election of 1896 in Manitoba Revisited BY Roland C. Pajares A Thesis/Practicum submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirement of the degree MASTER OF ARTS R. C. Pajares © 2008 Permission has been granted to the University of Manitoba Libraries to lend a copy of this thesis/practicum, to Library and Archives Canada (LAC) to lend a copy of this thesis/practicum, and to LAC's agent (UMI/ProQuest) to microfilm, sell copies and to publish an abstract of this thesis/practicum. This reproduction or copy of this thesis has been made available by authority of the copyright owner solely for the purpose of private study and research, and may only be reproduced and copied as permitted by copyright laws or with express written authorization from the copyright owner. ii ABSTRACT This thesis examines the federal election of 1896 in Manitoba. It is prompted by the question of why, during a brief period of six months, Manitoba voters retracted their support from the anti-Remedial and anti-coercionist Liberals in the Provincial election of January 1896 to elect the pro-Remedial and coercionist federal Conservatives in the federal election of 1896. The thesis investigates the ways Manitoba candidates and parties developed their positions and priorities on campaign issues and public policy during the federal campaign. It examines candidates' reliance upon both political management and their stance on controversial election issues. The thesis will show that the Manitoba campaign was not the referendum on education that almost all historians have assumed or concluded. Ill ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There have been many individuals who have helped me in writing this M.A. Thesis. First and foremost, I am forever grateful to my supervisor, Professor Barry Ferguson. His sage wisdom, guidance, and belief in this topic have allowed me to bring these pages to completion. I owe him the deepest gratitude for sharpening the conceptual framework of this manuscript. I also thank Professors Jack Bumsted, Len Kuffert, and Richard Sigurdson for their critique and comments throughout the drafts of this project. My debts extend to Professor Paul Stevens, where our discussions have helped broaden my understanding of the structure of the Canadian political parties since Confederation. During my research, I received help from the staff at the Library and Archives Canada, Archives of Ontario, Societe historique de Saint-Boniface, Archives of Manitoba, and the University of Manitoba Archives. Without their support in preserving the past, finding primary documents would have been nearly impossible. I am also thankful to Rod Bruinooge, who has taken the time to answer my questions on political and electoral management. A special thanks to Sunny Petrujkic, for his unmatched eye in catching grammatical errors. His experience saved me from embarrassment. I also owe thanks to Joseph Ahorro, who has helped me understand party systems in Canada. Jame Pedro's speciality on areas of Constitutional Law has served to clarify legal problems that were once difficult to understand. My friends at the University of Manitoba History Graduate Students' Association, SAMP A, and the Graduate Students' Association, who are too many to list, have been influential sources in challenging my views. I must thank the Wiles family and confidants Reznor and Taz, for welcoming me into their home. I owe much thanks to my Aunt Fe, who throughout the writing and research of this project, has offered me great insights to the real reason why voters vote. To my sister, Ruby, you have reminded me that there is more to life than just history and politics. Above all, and most importantly, I thank my parents, Dan and Gerry. Your unwavering support has allowed me to make it this far in my professional career. I could not have learnt to read, write, and prove a point without you.

  • A THREAT to LEADERSHIP: C.A.Dunning and Mackenzie King
    S. Peter Regenstreif A THREAT TO LEADERSHIP: C.A.Dunning and Mackenzie King BY Now mE STORY of the Progressive revolt and its impact on the Canadian national party system during the 1920's is well documented and known. Various studies, from the pioneering effort of W. L. Morton1 over a decade ago to the second volume of the Mackenzie King official biography2 which has recently appeared, have dealt intensively with the social and economic bases of the movement, the attitudes of its leaders to the institutions and practices of national politics, and the behaviour of its representatives once they arrived in Ottawa. Particularly in biographical analyses, 3 a great deal of attention has also been given to the response of the established leaders and parties to this disrupting influence. It is clearly accepted that the roots of the subsequent multi-party situation in Canada can be traced directly to a specific strain of thought and action underlying the Progressivism of that era. At another level, however, the abatement of the Pro~ gressive tide and the manner of its dispersal by the end of the twenties form the basis for an important piece of Canadian political lore: it is the conventional wisdom that, in his masterful handling of the Progressives, Mackenzie King knew exactly where he was going and that, at all times, matters were under his complete control, much as if the other actors in the play were mere marionettes with King the manipu­ lator. His official biographers have demonstrated just how illusory this conception is and there is little to be added to their efforts on this score.

    Self - Guided Walking Tour MANITOBA LEGISLATIVE BUILDING, GROUNDS, MEMORIAL PARK AND MEMORIAL BOULEVARD Page 1 The Manitoba Legislative Building The Manitoba Legislative Building is a priceless monument in the true sense of the term, since it is unlikely that it could ever be reproduced today. Construction of the neo-classical style building began in 1913, based on a collective vision to erect an imposing structure “not for present delight nor use alone… but such as our descendants will thank us for.” As the primary physical focus for Manitoba’s sense of its history and identity, it is natural that a number of statues and plaques commemorating notable people, events and historical themes are located on the grounds. With this leaflet as your guide, we invite you to take a walk through our history. A Walking Tour Through Manitoba’s History Welcome to your journey through the richness of Manitoba’s history offered by this tour of the scenic grounds of the magnificent Legislative Building. We hope that it will help you to understand the story of the development of Manitoba and to celebrate the cultural diversity which makes up Manitoba’s mosaic. Begin your journey through time by touring the statues and plaques, numerically listed in this guide. Use the map provided to locate the sites on the grounds. Your tour begins at the front of the Legislative Building and takes a counter-clockwise route around the grounds and concludes at Memorial Boulevard. (Please refer to maps on Pages 18 and 19) Page 2 Your journey begins at the Queen Victoria Statue.

  • The Canadian Bar Review
    THE CANADIAN BAR REVIEW THE CANADIAN BAR REVIEW is the organ of the Canadian Bar Association, and it is felt that its pages should be open to free and fair discussion of all matters of interest to the legal profession in Canada. The Editor, however, wishes it to be understood that opinions expressed in signed articles are those of the individual writers only, and that the REVIEW does not assume any responsibility for them. It is hoped that members of the profession will favour the Editor from time to time with notes of important cases determined by the Courts in which they practise. Contributors' manuscripts must be typed before being sent to the Editor at the Exchequer Court Building, Ottawa . TOPICS OF THE MONTH. ACADEMIC HONOURS FOR THE PRESIDENT OF THE C.B .A. -Our readers will be interested to learn that at a Convocation of Queen's University, held on the 12th of last month, Sir James Aikins, K.C ., President of the Canadian Bar Association, received the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws . Sir Robert Borden, K.C ., Chancellor of the University, presided at the Convocation . At the same time simi- lar degrees were conferred upon His Excellency the Governor- General of the Dominion and Sir Clifford Sifton . Four other insti- tutions of learning in Canada had preceded Queen's University in paying a tribute to the distinguished place held by Sir James Aikins as a citizen of Canada, namely, the University of Manitoba in 1919, Alberta University and McMaster University in 1921, and Toronto University in 1924 .
