  • When Minority Government Worked: the Pearson Legacy
    WHEN MINORITY GOVERNMENT WORKED: THE PEARSON LEGACY Tom Kent As senior policy adviser to the prime minister, our Founding Editor was closely involved in the minority governments of the tumultuous Pearson era from 1963 to 1968. After a bungled first year in office, as Tom Kent recalls here, the achievements of the next four years include the Canada-Quebec Pension Plan, universal health care, and others in this era of “co-operative federalism,” all of them adopted in a minority House. “The fundamentals that worked then,” he concludes, “firm objectives, sensitivity to the great needs of the times, co- operative federalism, cabinet government — are as necessary today.” À titre de conseiller principal en politiques du premier ministre, notre rédacteur fondateur Tom Kent s’est trouvé de 1963 à 1968 aux premières loges de la période agitée des gouvernements minoritaires de Lester B. Pearson. Il rappelle ici qu’après une première année bousillée, les quatre suivantes ont produit des réalisations majeures, notamment le Régime de pensions Canada-Québec, le programme universel de soins de santé et plusieurs autres mesures clés attribuables au « fédéralisme coopératif » cher à Pearson, toutes adoptées par un Parlement minoritaire. « Les principes fondamentaux qui ont inspiré ces actions — fermeté des objectifs, sensibilité aux grands besoins de l’époque, fédéralisme coopératif et gouvernement par l’exécutif — restent aujourd’hui tout aussi nécessaires », conclut-il. he Pearson-led Liberals of the 1960s could not win a First, in the 1960s the Liberals had firm, coherent objec- parliamentary majority.

  • W. S. Fielding and the Liberal Party in Nova Scotia, 1891 - 1896
    K. M. McLaughlin W. S. Fielding and the Liberal Party in Nova Scotia, 1891 - 1896 Sir Richard Cartwright, Knight Commander of the Order of St. Michael and St. George, inveterate politician, ardent proponent of the policy of Unrestricted Reciprocity with the United States, was utterly despondent on learning the results of the election of 1891. Macdonald and the Conservatives remained on the benches of the Government side of the House. The National Policy so despised by Cartwright was still the law of the land. Victory had eluded the Liberals again. What so infuriated Cartwright was that Macdonald and the Conservatives had won their greatest support where Cartwright thought they ought to have been weakest — in the Maritime provinces. "The shreds and patches" of the nation, he fumed, had kept Sir John in power.1 Since Confederation Nova Scotians had been a puzzling enigma to the leaders of the Liberal party. Their special pleading in 1876 had moved Sir Richard Cartwright not to grant a significant increase in the tariff.2 Yet Nova Scotians voted overwhelmingly against the Liberal party in the elections of 1878, 1882 and 1887.3 Before the election in 1891, Nova Scotian Liberals assured their colleagues that the party would do well. Nova Scotia's Attorney- General, J. W. Longley, was quite confident of success. He believed that popular opinion supported the party's tariff policy and he had obtained money from the United States to finance the campaign, while the Conserv­ atives had less money than in previous elections. Even Sir Charles Tupper's return to Nova Scotia at the special behest of Sir John A.

  • French in the Canadian Public Sphere, 1763-1969
    H-Announce French in the Canadian public sphere, 1763-1969 Announcement published by Ged Martin on Monday, June 3, 2019 Type: Online Digital Resources Location: Ireland {Republic} Subject Fields: Canadian History / Studies French in the Canadian public sphere, 1763-1969 What were the obstacles to the use of French in a society dominated by Anglophones? To mark 50 years of Canada's Official Languages Act, British historian Ged Martin has e-published a 34,000-word overview, which asks: Who spoke French in English Canada? John A. Macdonald and Mackenzie King were both prime ministers who emphasised national unity and depended on votes from Quebec. Neither could speak French. Macdonald understood French, and once uttered half a bilingual sentence in the House of Commons, taunting Laurier after the 1891 election (and six weeks before his death) with the words: "J'y suis, j'y reste." Until the 1960s, Ottawa -- both bureaucracy and parliament -- largely functioned in English. When a senior civil servant from Quebec in External Affairs insisted on his right to receive documents in hs own language, King treated the demand as a sign of a nervous breakdown, while some cabinet colleagues pressed for disciplinary action. Yet there were bilingual Anglophones, such as 22 year-old John Meehan, who addressed the crowd in English and French from the scaffold in Quebec City at his execution for murder in 1864. The Laurentian separatist Jules-Paul Tardivel and the first Acadian cabinet minister, Peter John Veniot, were both born into Anglophone families but switched into the world of French. Taking the dominance of their mother tongue for granted, most English Canadian historians and biographers have failed to emphasise the vital role of bilingual Francophones in running the country.
