	Arthur Meighen - Search View - MSN Encarta
		Meighen believed that the general election in 1917 would be fought on the issue of the draft.
		The Military Voters Act and the War Times Election Act took the vote away from conscientious objectors and German-speaking naturalized citizens and gave it to the female relatives of men on active service, who until that time had not had the right to vote.
		Meighen was making no headway in Québec, even though in a speech in Hamilton he had said that the government should consult “the people at a general election before troops should leave our shores.” He only alienated some of his imperialist supporters with this statement.

	The Canadian Dominion: A Chronicle Of Our Northern Neighbor Chapter IV. The Days Of Trial
		In the summer of 1872 the second general election for the Dominion was held.
		As the election drew near and revelations of the annexationist aims of some supporters of the wider trade policy were made, the Government made the loyalty cry its strong card.
		In Ontario and Quebec the two parties were evenly divided, but the West and the Maritime Provinces, the "shreds and patches of Confederation," as Sir Richard Cartwright, too ironic and vitriolic in his speech for political success, termed them, gave the Government a working majority, which was increased in by-elections.

		Westerners began to feel that Ontario and Quebec pulled all the strings in Canada, and that farmers (who were a majority out west) needed to band together to counter this influence.
		Ontario and Quebec unions were largely craft and skilled worker unions.
		When the General Strike finally occurred in Winnipeg the radicalism of union statements, combined with the conservatism of political leaders (and their fear of a communist revolution starting in Canada) resulted in a violent clash between strikers, the police and government.

		By the time nominations had closed for the October 14 general election, there were 174 Reconstruction candidates, most of them political novices, with 33 farmers forming the largest single group.
		In provincial elections in June and July the last two Tory governments fell by astonishing margins: only eight Conservatives were returned to New Brunswick's forty-eight constituencies, and on Prince Edward Island the Liberals carried every seat.
		In these, on election day, the balance between Liberal and Conservative voters was almost even, and it was very frequently the intervention of a Reconstruction candidate that turned the scale; generally against the Conservatives.
