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.

  • Hugh Robson As Manitoba Liberal Leader, 1927–1929
    The Failure of Liberal Reform: Hugh Robson as Manitoba Liberal Leader, 1927–1929 BARRY FERGUSON* n an era of tumultuous changes to the party system, Hugh Robson led the Manitoba Liberals from March 1927 to January 1930. The issues he dealt I with were not just staple questions like provincial rights, economic development and social policy, but also critical matters regarding partisan alignments and the relations between provincial and federal party branches. These were important issues in the inter-war decades and are recurring themes in party politics. A focus on Robson as a politician is a study of his experience with crucial aspects of party politics in the early 20th century. Several important studies of the inter-war period have examined the transformation of party politics and the difficulties experienced by the Liberals throughout the Prairies. Focussed on the promise and failures of political party and policy transformation, including the eclipse of Manitoba Liberals, these works have overlooked Hugh Robson’s own agenda and the possibility that the Manitoba Liberals might have survived the 1920s as an autonomous and positive force.1 A full interpretation of Robson is hindered by the absence of his personal papers, but a careful reading of other personal papers and * Barry Ferguson is the Duff Roblin Professor of Government at the University of Manitoba. Professor Ferguson teaches primarily in the areas of history and political studies, and received his Ph.D. from York University. 1 W L Morton, Manitoba: A History, 2nd edition

  • Manitoba Liberal Party Today Is a Small ‘L’ Liberal Party Similar to the Moderate Centre-Left Federal Liberal Party
    MANITOBA’S LIBERALS: SLIDING INTO THIRD November 9, 2008 For presentation to the conference: “Manitoba Politics, Government and Policy into the 21st Century” St. John’s College, University of Manitoba Winnipeg November 20-22, 2008 Introduction The essential task in analyzing the history of the Liberal Party of Manitoba is explaining how it became Manitoba’s third party. Manitoba’s Liberals have deep roots in the province’s history, including participation in a government that lasted three and half decades in the mid-20th century. Why then have they arrived at their current diminished state: two seats in the legislature, just 12% of the vote in May 22, 2007 provincial election? When viewed from elsewhere in Canada there is much about Manitoba that suggests one could expect to find a strong Liberal presence here. For example, it has much of the urban, ethnically diverse character traditionally associated with Liberal strength in Ontario. Indeed Nelson Wiseman characterized Manitoba as the “Ontario of the prairies” because the wave of immigrants from Ontario during Manitoba’s first few decades had a formative impact on its political culture.1 However, the Ontario immigrants were British and prosperous, settling the good farmlands in Manitoba’s south and west. Indeed it helps to understand the state of Manitoba’s Liberals by comparing their situation to that of the Liberal Party in Ontario. Today Ontario Liberals are in a markedly different position than their Manitoba counterparts. The Ontario party has had considerable electoral success over the past few decades. Since 1987 it has won three decisive majority victories in Ontario elections, and by 2011 will have governed the province for 13 out of 26 years.
