While 30 cm falling at the end of March isn't ideal for us here in Central Alberta, it could be worse.
At least we don't have to shovel a path to the outhouse like this individual had to in Calgary in the 1920s.

Throughout the federal election campaign, I am going to be looking at elections from Canada's past.
Today, it is the 1896 election.
The last election of the 19th century, it ended the Conservative dynasty and began 15 years of Liberal rule.

Tupper initially refused to resign as Prime Minister, stating Laurier could not form government. After he tried to make appointments, the Governor General refused to allow it and Tupper resigned.
Tupper's 68 days as Prime Minister is the shortest in history to date.

In the June 2, 1997 election, the Liberals won another majority government with 155 seats. It was the first back-to-back Liberal majority since the 1940s and 1950s.
The Reform Party won 60 seats to become the Official Opposition for the first time in its history.
