1940 election

[edit]

This article repeats the information from the Parliamentary website that Robert Rae Manville won 7,534 votes in the Canadian federal election, 1940, placing second, as the candidate of the National Unity party, another name for the Parti national social chrétien. This sounds like an error to me. I think the Parliamentary site is wrong and that Manville was the National Government (i.e., Conservative) candidate. Can anyone verify this? - User:Ground Zero, 11:59, 7 May 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.112.93.108 (talk) [reply]

Replying to a very old comment, but it appears that Manville used the National-unity label as an amalgam of the National Government and the Social Credit, according to the article National-Unity (candidate), so correct, not associated with the fascist National Unity Party (Canada).
