Crerar, who served with the Liberals for decades, first as a cabinet minister and then as a Senator. | | | Crerar became the first leader of the Progressive Party, and led it to win 65 seats in the 1921 general election. |

| | Progressive education took issue with the fact that parents were not the best judge of what their children should learn in school, the Progressives openly declared that they were the appropriate group to make the decisions concerning the educational experiences of the children. | | | The Progressive Movement represented an attack on Individualism, as enunciated and contained within the Declaration of Independence and as guaranteed by The Constitution of the United, States. | | | Instead of attacking The United States Constitution and the Constitutional provisions, as Rugg had done earlier in his publications, learning from this mistake, The Frontier Thinkers of Dewey, instead concentrated their attack on the motives and the personalities of the men who participated in the manufacture of the document. |

| | There is, for example, no inherent reason why liberals who favor government regulation of the economy should oppose virtually all government regulations of abortion, or why conservatives who oppose government regulation of the economy should favor government regulation of abortion. | | | Liberals (in American usage) are those who tend to favor government intervention as the response to any issue, while conservatives tend to favor private initiative and voluntary action. | | | All of us know - or think we know - the difference between conservative and liberal, as those terms are commonly used in the United States. |
