Government of Manitoba e-bog

This contribution to the Canadian Government series continues the study of provincial government made, with varying approaches, by Frank MacKinnon for Prince Edward Island, Murray Beck for Nova Scotia, and Hugh Thorburn for New Brunswick.Professor Donnelly describes the political institutions of Manitoba, viewing them also in historical perspective and singling out the particular forces that have shaped them. He traces the development of the party system in Canada, its decline under the farmer-dominated Progressive governments of the twenties and under the coalitions that followed, and its resurgence under the Conservative government of Premier Roblin.
