It won only eight seats

10. The background is the flag for ‘the red scare’ where the hammer and the sickle symbolize the unification of the workers and the peasants. The star represents the communist party The First red scare took place in 1917-1920, and was marked by a widespread fear of anarchism and communism Tensions were elevated due to violence by various groups inspired by the Bolshevik revolution in Russia and the ensuing Russian Civil War In 1919, a plot was set up to send 36 bombs to a variety of places. On June 2 nd, bombs exploded in eight different cities within the same hour The common view was that communists were planning to overthrow democracy. The ‘Red scare’ was the threat against the capitalists

17. William Aberhart “Bible Bill” William Aberhart was also known as “Bible Bill” for his religious preaching, Aberhart became interested in politics during the Great Depression He was interested in the “social credit” theories of Major C.H Douglas, a Scottish engineer. From 1932 to 1935, Aberhart lobbied for the governing political party, the United Farmers of Alberta, to discuss these theories The meaning of social credit is that the difference in production cost and individuals' purchasing power should be attached through government grants.

18. William Aberhart established the Social Credit Party of Alberta in 1935 He promised each citizen a “prosperity certificate” of $25 a month to buy necessities His government was not able to apply most of their rules, because the social credit concept relied on control of the money supply and of the banks, both of which were the responsibility of the federal government of Canada Social Credit Party of Alberta

19.
