The 1930 Alberta general election is due to be held on June 19, 1930, to elect members of the 7th Legislative Assembly of Alberta. The United Farmers of Alberta government first elected in 1921 and again in 1926 is hoping for a third term. John E. Brownlee remains as premier leading the party into his second election as leader. Can he lead the UFA to a third election victory or could the Liberals return to power in Edmonton?
The 1926 Alberta general election is due to be held on June 28, 1926, to elect members of the 6th Legislative Assembly of Alberta. The United Farmers of Alberta government first elected in 1921 is hoping for re-election. Last year Herbert Greenfield resigned as UFA leader and premier being replaced by John E. Brownlee. Can he lead the UFA to a second election victory or will the Liberals return to power in Edmonton?
As STV isn’t available, the system for Calgary and Edmonton has been replaced by the Instant Runoff system used for the remainder of the province but modified to artificially create competitive contests.
Version 2 is a small fix to make the generic debate show up. (version 1 had the date set to April in error).
The Liberals have been in power for 15 years and seek their 5th consecutive electoral win under Premier Charles Stewart. The Conservatives were able to mount their strongest challenge so far at the last election in 1917. A new party, the UFA, makes it’s first provincial election appearance. The labour movement remains split, but a number of ‘Labour’ candidates are running to make it an effective 4th force.
The platforms for Independent Labour, the Indepedent Liberal and the Socialist Party were compiled by locating sources through ChatGPT.

The incumbent Progressive Conservatives led by Premier of Heather Stefanson, are attempting to win a third term in government, having previously won the 2016 and 2019 elections under the leadership of Brian Pallister.

Alberta became a province on September 1, 1905. Alexander Cameron Rutherford, appointed first Premier of Alberta, has called an election for November 9, 1905, and stacked the deck by making Edmonton the capital city and weighing Liberal strongholds with more seats. Can Richard Bennett’s Conservatives manage to knock out the Liberals regardless?
Never before has Canada so fragile. Unprecented casualties in the Great War forced Borden to pass the conscription through Parliament. The decision of the English Canada sharply alienated the French, who were offended by the long-standing suppresion outside Quebec.
The Coalition organised a great vote rigging, simultaneously expanding women’s rights and taking away alien’s one. Laurier Liberals have accumulated a loud anti-conscription voice.
The dirtiest, most intolerant and most vicious campaign is ahead. Election day will become Doomsday.
This campaign has three different variations that you can play:
Separate Unionist: Conservative and Liberal Unionists nominate separately, but in coalition. Here you can play for Unionist candidates who have retired from competition;
United Unionist: Historically traditional scenario of Unionists vs Laurier Liberals;
No Union(AH): Coalition talks fail, and straight-party Conservatives and Liberals run separately. An independent nationalist and anti-conscription movement led by Henri Bourassa rises in Quebec.

Brian Mulroney’s Conservatives have faced tough times since their landslide in 1984, and have staked their mandate on their new US-Canada Free Trade Agreement. John Turner hopes to end the FTA and reclaim the PM’s office on a revival of Canadian nationalism, while Ed Broadbent sees the perfect chance to bring the NDP to new heights. Preston Manning is standing for Western interests. This election is about the FTA and only about that, however, the future winner will have to face Meech Lake, abortion, and other challenges.
This is currently the largest work within the CHC. To a large extent, this was made possible by the work of the original author, as well as a wide range of works on these elections. This creates unique scenarios:
PC: Joe Clark, Brian Mulroney, Don Mazankowski, Lucien Bouchard LIB: Allan MacEachen, Jean Chrйtien, John Turner, Pierre Trudeau, Lloyd Axworthy NDP: Simon de Jong, Dave Barrett, Ed Broadbent, Phil Edmonston Others: Preston Manning (Reform), Elmer Knutson (COR), Ed VanWoudenberg (CHP), Kathryn Cholette (Green), Robert Toupin (Ind. MP from Terrebonne)
What if Mulroney never decided on an FTA and was replaced by Don Mazankowski?
What if the Liberals staged a coup before the election and installed Chrétien?
What if Trudeau and Clark meet in a rematch of 1979-80?
What if three Québec leaders will confront each other?
Needless to say, the campaign includes >50 events and 35 endorsers to make your gameplay exciting and challenging. Also, although Free Trade discussion takes up all the space, many other issues are also not left out.
Because this is more than an election. This is your future.. or, at least, a few entertaining evenings.
