Abstract This dissertation is a legal history of Alberta’s early twentieth-century battle to control liquor. During this period, Alberta, like a number of other jurisdictions both inside and outside of Canada, enacted some form of legislative liquor prohibition. When prohibition failed to control liquor, Alberta, in common with other jurisdictions which had experimented with prohibition, introduced government liquor sales. Typically this shift from prohibition to government liquor sales has been understood as a gradual liberalization of liquor sales. This dissertation argues, by contrast, that the end of prohibition in Alberta saw the introduction of more effective liquor controls.

  • Social History of Elbow Park
    Social History of Elbow Park 1. Introduction Elbow Park began its history as an upper middle class suburb of Calgary, one of many neighbourhoods created by the explosive growth of the city shortly before World War One. Although most of the area comprising modern Elbow Park was homesteaded in the early 1880s, it was left undeveloped until 1907. The City of Calgary annexed the area that year, and real estate developer Freddy Lowes and his associates bought and surveyed it. Lowes intended to create an exclusive residential suburb with spacious lots and lovely homes, situated on the pleasant banks of the Elbow River. The first few houses were built in 1909, including Lowes’ own residence. Construction began in earnest the following year. The boom in Calgary was short lived and ended with World War One. By then the neighbourhood of Elbow Park was firmly established as one of the city’s first purpose designed residential suburbs and one of the last to be built before the war. This is a social history of Elbow Park. In its simplest terms, the social history of a place can be defined as the story of the people who lived there. It can uncover historically significant individuals who resided in the neighbourhood. It can try to understand the demographic character of the residents: how long they lived there, their age, the size of their families, their income, or their occupations. It can elucidate aspects of their culture, lifestyle, religious and political beliefs and outlook on the world. This study documents the social character of Elbow Park through its demographics and their change over time, and provides a biographical overview of its residents.

    A Tradition of Vigilance: The Role of Lieutenant Governor in Alberta by Alfred Thomas Neitsch A contemporary misconception exists in Canada that the Governor General and the Lieutenant Governors are politically impotent. In fact, they have considerable power both of a legal and political nature.
