		Alberta’s population grew rapidly in the late 19th and early 20th centuries with agricultural settlement of the province.

		Alberta held its first elections that same year, and in 1906 the legislature convened in Edmonton, which had been chosen as the provincial capital.
		Under UFA administration the province generally prospered until the 1930s, when the effects of the world economic depression, together with a series of prolonged droughts and grasshopper plagues, caused serious hardship in Alberta.
		Alberta was changing, however, as a result of the rapid growth of the oil industry after World War II (1939-1945).

		A Prime Minister may lose his or her seat in an election, but can remain in office as long as the party has sufficient support in the House of Commons to be able to govern, though again, he or she must, by custom, win a seat very promptly.
		In the general election of December 6, 1921, 4 women ran as candidates and only one was elected: Miss Agnes Campbell MacPhail became the first woman to sit in the House of Commons; she was elected as a Progressive.
		Until 1997, the minimum election period was 47 days, largely because of the requirement for a door-to-door enumeration to be conducted during the campaign.

	Maple Leaf Web -- Alberta Party Parties
		Alberta’s inception as a province in 1905 heralded the birth of the Conservative Party of Alberta.

	ABORIGINAL
		In Alberta, the Métis of the Paddle Prairie Settlement in Northern Alberta managed to threaten the negotiation of governance restructuring.
		Peter Lougheed, the Alberta Premier who began these negotiations to restructure the relationship between the province and one group of Métis in Alberta, wanted a made-in-Alberta solution to aboriginal self-reliance.7 "Resolution 18", which Lougheed introduced in the provincial legislature in 1982, was a commitment made by the government that led to the Métis Settlements Accord.8
		However, it is important to note that within the constraining financial and legal boundaries set by the federal and provincial governments, in domains such as human resources policy, education policy or social policy, aboriginal decision-making may be relatively unencumbered.
