  • Manitoba's Progressive Conservative Party
    Manitoba’s Progressive Conservative Party: A “Great Renewal” or Continued Disarray? Paper presented to the Roblin Professorship Conference - Manitoba Politics, Government and Policy into the 21st Century November 2008 Draft Working Paper – Please do no cite without permission from the author Kelly L. Saunders, Ph.D. Department of Political Science Brandon University Brandon, MB [email protected] I. Introduction At the annual general meeting of the Manitoba Progressive Conservative Party held last spring, leader Hugh McFadyen acknowledged that while it had had some disappointing setbacks, the Party was nonetheless on the verge of a “great renewal”. In light of the Party’s diminishing fortunes over the past decade, and most recently in the May 2007 election when it suffered its worst electoral showing since 1953, McFadyen’s attempts to instill hope in his Party’s faithful is understandable. Whether the Party is simply experiencing the ebb and flow natural to all political organizations, or is suffering from a deeper, more serious malaise, however, remains disputable. What is clear is that the Conservatives, as they enter the 21st century, are at a turning point in their history. The extent to which it is able to overcome its current woes, and be viewed as a credible and realistic alternative to the governing New Democrats by a wider proportion of Manitobans, is the fundamental question before the Party today. It is also the focus of this paper. In addressing the varied challenges confronting the P.C. Party as it enters the new millennium, the paper will draw on interviews with party insiders as well as a variety of primary and secondary documents1.

    The Flag of Our Fathers? The Manitoba Provincial Flag and British Cultural Hegemony in Manitoba, 1870–1966 David W. Grebstad Introduction In February 2015, Canada celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of the adoption of the Canadian flag. Since its inception, the prevailing narrative of the advent of the modern Canadian flag describes the event as an important, iconic stage of nationalist evolution from British colony to independent nation. At the moment of its genesis, however, this was not a universal sentiment; the detractors of the new Canadian flag were legion. The debate surrounding the adoption of the flag was acrimonious and fierce, and in the end only the defection of the Québec caucus of the Progressive Conservative Party to support the governing Liberal Party’s new flag design ensured that it was adopted at all. The story of the national flag debate, as the episode came to be known, is well-trodden ground; less well known is the reaction in several provinces to the lack of British symbolism in the new national flag. Shortly after the modern Canadian flag was hoisted for the first time on Parliament Hill, the provinces of Ontario and Manitoba adopted provincial flags that retained British symbolism in the form of a modified Red Ensign; a design which had been used in both official and unofficial capacities as the national flag of Canada for several decades. This paper will focus on a little known chapter in Canadian history—the adoption of the provincial flag of Manitoba as a protest against the new Canadian flag. In the year and a half following the adoption of the modern Canadian flag, the people of Manitoba engaged in their own short but turbulent debate about the creation of a unique provincial flag.
