	Canadian federal election, 1968 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Canadian federal election of 1968 was held on June 25, 1968 to elect members of the Canadian House of Commons.
		As Conservative candidates began to renounce this policy, the party was forced to backtrack, and late in the campaign, ran ads signed by Stanfield that stated that the PC Party stood for "One country, one Canada".
		Images of Trudeau standing fast to the thrown bottles of the rioters were broadcast across the country, and swung the election even further in the Liberals' favour as many English-speaking Canadians believed that he would be the right leader to fight the threat of Quebec separatism.

		When the Canadian federal election of 1962 was called, the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada of John George Diefenbaker had governed for almost five years with the largest majority in the House of Commons in Canadian history.
		The Tories were reduced to a tenuous minority government as a result of economic difficulties such as high unemployment and a slumping Canadian dollar, as well as unpopular decisions such as the cancellation of the Avro Arrow.
		The 1962 election was the first contested by the social democratic New Democratic Party, which had been formed from an alliance between the old Co-operative Commonwealth Federation and the Canadian Labour Congress.

		The Canadian federal election of 1963 resulted in the defeat of the minority Progressive Conservative government of John George Diefenbaker.
		Despite winning 41% of the vote, which is usually sufficient for ensuring the election of a majority government, the Liberals fell seven seats short of their target.
		They were again disappointed by the failure of their new partnership with the labour movement to produce an electoral breakthrough, particularly in the province of Ontario, which has the largest population and the largest number of seats in the Canadian House of Commons.

		The USA has been key to Canadian self-definition from the beginning, for the establishment of the United States was the beginning of the establishment of a boundary that would define Canada territorially.
		Indeed, though Canadians are quite properly pleased to be able to claim victory against the USA in the War of 1812, no one doubts that the presence of professional imperial forces was significant in the outcome.
