| | The renamed Tories were unable to make any gains from their 1935 result, and Manion failed to win his seat, leading to his resignation as party leader two months later. | | | He spent most of the 1920s on the opposition benches, except for a few months in 1926 when he served as a minister in the second Meighen administration, including the position of Postmaster-General. | | | However, the economic crisis of the Great Depression destroyed the Bennett government, and Manion, with many others, lost his seat in the 1935 election. |

| | A Canadian judge refused to grant him immigration status and was overruled from the Canadian cabinet. | | | As a result, the practice of law in Canada involves the use of US decisions, cases, and precedents in a greater degree than it did before 1982 because the United States has always had its Supreme Court superior to legislatures in matters of the US Rights document and the interpretation of the US Constitution. | | | The Supreme Court of Canada existed already, but the Charter of Rights and Freedoms gave the court priority in the interpretation of that document and the right to call legislation passed by the parliaments of Canada invalid if judged offensive to the Charter. |

| | Canadian Alliance Rigs Election! |
| | Anyway, we had an election up here on 27 November, 2000. | | | I wasn't terribly thrilled at the prospect of having to go to the polls 3.5 years after I had last voted, and although I disliked the incumbent sorta left-wing party (and couldn't vote for them), I was less fond of the opposition right-wing party (and wouldn't vote for them). | | | My election returns, from Victoria, were slow coming in and I wasn't sure whether the Globe and Mail was declaring people as the winners, so I decided to pop over to a riding where I knew someone had been elected -- Calgary Southeast, the riding where I grew up, and where my parents still live. |
