Henry Rutherford Harry Jackman , OC ( November 5 , 1900 - November 22 , 1979 ) was a Canadian politician and successful entrepreneur . In 1973 , he was made an Officer of the Order of Canada . Harry Jackman represented the electoral district of Rosedale in the House of Commons of Canada from 1940 to 1949 . He was first elected in 1940 as a member of Robert Manion 's World War II National Government caucus ( which , despite the name , formed the Official Opposition in the House of Commons of Canada ) , after wresting his party 's nomination from Conservative incumbent Harry Gladstone Clarke . Jackman was re-elected in 1945 as a Progressive Conservative . He ran again in 1949 , but was defeated . In business , Jackman built the Empire Life group of financial service companies during the Great Depression . Jackman married Mary Coyne Rowell , the daughter of Canadian politician Newton Wesley Rowell , in 1930 . They had four children : Henry ( Hal ) , Eric , Edward , and Nancy .
The Conservative Party of Canada has gone by a variety of names over the years since Canadian Confederation . Initially known as the Liberal-Conservative Party , it dropped Liberal from its name in 1873 , although many of its candidates continued to use this name . As a result of World War I and the Conscription Crisis of 1917 , the party joined with pro-conscription Liberals to become the Unionist Party , led by Robert Borden from 1917 to 1920 , and then the National Liberal and Conservative Party until 1922 . It then reverted to Liberal-Conservative Party until 1938 , when it became simply the National Conservative Party . It ran in the 1940 election as National Government even though it was in opposition . The party was almost always referred to as simply the Conservative Party or Tories .
Toronto Centre ( French : Toronto-Centre ) is a federal electoral district in Toronto , Ontario , Canada , that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada from 1872 to 1925 , and since 1935 , under the names Centre Toronto ( 1872-1903 ) , Toronto Centre ( 1903-1925 , and since 2004 ) , Rosedale ( 1935-1997 ) , and Toronto Centre - Rosedale ( 1997-2004 ) . Toronto Centre covers the heart of Downtown Toronto . The riding contains areas such as Regent Park ( Canada 's first and largest social housing development ) , St. James Town ( a largely immigrant area and the most densely populated neighbourhood in Canada ) , Cabbagetown , Church and Wellesley ( Canada 's largest gay neighbourhood ) , Ryerson University , The Toronto Eaton Centre and part of the city 's financial district ( the east side of Bay Street ) . Historically , the riding was one of the few in central Toronto where the Progressive Conservatives usually did well . The PCs held the riding for 34 of the 58 years from 1935 to 1993 . However , it has been in Liberal hands without interruption since 1993 . The 2012 federal electoral redistribution shifted much of the wealthier northern part of the riding , which included Rosedale , to the new riding of University - Rosedale . The riding was represented by former interim Liberal leader Bob Rae after the federal by-elections of March 17 , 2008 . Rae resigned from Parliament on July 31 , 2013 .
The Royal Air Force ( RAF ) is the United Kingdom 's aerial warfare force . It was formed towards the end of the First World War on 1 April 1918 . Following victory over the Central Powers in 1918 the RAF emerged as , at the time , the largest air force in the world . Since its formation , the RAF has taken a significant role in British military history . In particular , it played a large part in the Second World War where it fought its most famous campaign , the Battle of Britain . The RAF 's mission is to support the objectives of the British Ministry of Defence ( MoD ) , which are to provide the capabilities needed to ensure the security and defence of the United Kingdom and overseas territories , including against terrorism ; to support the Government 's foreign policy objectives particularly in promoting international peace and security . The RAF describes its mission statement as . [ to provide ] an agile , adaptable and capable Air Force that , person for person , is second to none , and that makes a decisive air power contribution in support of the UK Defence Mission . The mission statement is supported by the RAF 's definition of air power , which guides its strategy . Air power is defined as the ability to project power from the air and space to influence the behaviour of people or the course of events . Today the Royal Air Force maintains an operational fleet of various types of aircraft , described by the RAF as being leading-edge in terms of technology . This largely consists of fixed-wing aircraft , including : fighter and strike aircraft , airborne early warning and control aircraft , ISTAR and SIGINT aircraft , aerial refueling aircraft and strategic and tactical transport aircraft .

James was defeated in the 1957 election by Percy Vivian of the Progressive Conservative party .
The Liberal Party of Canada ( French : Parti libéral du Canada ) is the oldest and longest-serving political party in Canada . The party has dominated federal politics for much of Canada 's history , holding power for almost 70 years in the 20th century - more than any other party in a developed country - and as a result , it is sometimes referred to as Canada 's natural governing party . The party espouses the principles of liberalism , and generally sits at the centre to centre-left of the Canadian political spectrum , with the Conservative Party positioned to the centre-right and the New Democratic Party ( who at times aligned itself with the Liberals during minority governments ) , occupying the centre-left to left . Like their federal Conservative Party rivals , the party is often described as a big tent , attracting support from a broad spectrum of voters . In the late 1970s , Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau claimed that his Liberal Party adhered to the radical centre . The Liberals ' signature policies and legislative decisions include universal health care , the Canada Pension Plan , Canada Student Loans , peacekeeping , multilateralism , official bilingualism , official multiculturalism , patriating the Canadian constitution and the entrenchment of Canada 's Charter of Rights and Freedoms , the Clarity Act , legalizing same-sex marriage , euthanasia , and cannabis , national carbon pricing , and reproductive choice . In the 2015 federal election , the Liberal Party under Justin Trudeau had its best result since the 2000 election , winning 39.5 percent of the popular vote and 184 seats , gaining a majority of seats in the House of Commons . However , in the 2019 federal election , they lost their majority , winning 157 seats , but they still remained the largest party in the House .
Durham ( formerly known as Clarington - Scugog - Uxbridge ) is a federal electoral district in Ontario , Canada , that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada from 1904 to 1968 , and since 1988 . Its first iteration was created in 1903 from Durham East and Durham West ridings . It consisted of the county of Durham . The electoral district was abolished in 1966 when it was merged into Northumberland - Durham ridings . It was recreated in 1987 from parts of Durham - Northumberland and Ontario ridings . The second incarnation of the riding was initially defined to consist of the Town of Newcastle , the townships of Scugog and Uxbridge , Scugog Indian Reserve No . 34 , the part of the City of Oshawa lying north of Rossland Road and the allowance for road in front of lots 1 , 2 , 3 and 4 , Concession 3 , and the part of the Town of Whitby lying north of Taunton Road . In 1996 , it was redefined to consist of the Township of Scugog , Scugog Indian Reserve No . 34 , the Town of Clarington , and the part of the City of Oshawa lying north of a line drawn from west to east along Taunton Road , south along Ritson Road North , east along Rossland Road East , south along Harmony Road North , and east along King Street East . The electoral district was abolished in 2003 when it was redistributed between Clarington - Scugog - Uxbridge , Oshawa and Whitby - Oshawa ridings . Clarington - Scugog - Uxbridge was defined to consist of the townships of Uxbridge and Scugog , the Municipality of Clarington , and the Mississaugas of Scugog Island reserve . In 2004 , Clarington - Scugog - Uxbridge was renamed Durham riding .
The Canadian Army ( French : Armée canadienne ) is the command responsible for the operational readiness of the conventional ground forces of the Canadian Armed Forces . As of 2018 [ update ] the Army has 23,000 regular soldiers , about 19,000 reserve soldiers , including 5,000 rangers , for a total of 40,000 soldiers . The Army is supported by 3,000 civilian employees . It maintains regular forces units at bases across Canada , and is also responsible for the Army Reserve , the largest component of the Primary Reserve . The Commander of the Canadian Army and Chief of the Army Staff is Lieutenant-General Wayne Eyre . The name Canadian Army came into official use beginning only in 1940 ; from before Confederation until the Second World War the official designation was Canadian Militia . On 1 April 1966 , as a precursor to the unification of Canada 's armed services , all land forces , plus RCAF tactical units , were placed under a new command called Force Mobile Command . The Canadian Army persisted as a legal entity for two more years , before it amalgamated with the Royal Canadian Navy , and Royal Canadian Air Force to form a single service called the Canadian Armed Forces . Force Mobile Command was renamed Mobile Command in 1991-2 , and Land Force Command in 1993 . In August 2011 , Land Force Command reverted to the pre-1968 title of the Canadian Army .

John Theophilus Jenkins ( January 1 , 1829 - January 17 , 1919 ) was a physician and political figure in Prince Edward Island . He represented Charlottetown in the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island from 1873 to 1876 and Queen 's County in the House of Commons of Canada from 1882 to 1883 and from 1884 to 1887 as a Liberal-Conservative member . He was the first native-born physician on Prince Edward Island . He was born in Charlottetown , the son of Reverend J.C. Jenkins and Penelope Desbrisay who was the daughter of Theophilus Desbrisay . He was educated at the Central Academy in Charlottetown and at St Bartholomew 's Hospital in London , England . Jenkins served as a surgeon in the Ottoman Army during the Crimean War . He was coroner and health officer for Charlottetown and married Jessie Esther , the daughter of Stephen Rice in 1856 . His election to the House of Commons in 1882 was declared invalid after an appeal ; Jenkins was elected to the same seat in an 1884 by-election after Frederick de St Croix Brecken resigned his seat to accept an appointment as postmaster for Charlottetown . He was elected to the provincial assembly in 5th Queens in an 1891 by-election held after Patrick Blake ran unsuccessfully for a seat in the House of Commons and served until 1893 . Jenkins also raised horses and owned a ranch in Western Canada . He died in Charlottetown at the age of 70 .

The Liberal-Conservative Party ( French : le Parti libéral-conservateur ) was the formal name of the Conservative Party of Canada until 1873 , and again from 1922 to 1938 , although some Conservative candidates continued to run under the label as late as the 1911 election and others ran as simple Conservatives before 1873 . In many of Canada 's early elections , there were both Liberal-Conservative and Conservative candidates ; however , these were simply different labels used by candidates of the same party . Both were part of Sir John A. Macdonald 's government and official Conservative and Liberal-Conservative candidates would not , generally , [ clarification needed ] run against each other . It was also common for a candidate to run on one label in one election and the other in a subsequent election . The roots of the name are in the coalition of 1853 in which moderate Reformers and Conservatives from Canada West joined with bleus from Canada East under the dual premiership of Sir Allan MacNab and A.-N. Morin . The new ministry committed to secularizing Clergy reserves in Canada West and abolishing seigneurial tenure in Canada East . Over time , the Liberal-Conservatives evolved into the Conservative party and their opponents , the Clear Grits and the Parti rouge evolved into the Liberal Party of Canada . On October 12 , 1916 , the last Liberal-Conservative cabinet minister , Sam Hughes , was dismissed , making the executive all officially Conservative Party members . Prominent Liberal-Conservative Members of Parliament and Senators in Canadian history include :
Queen 's County was a federal electoral district in Prince Edward Island , Canada , that was represented in the House of Commons of Canada from 1873 to 1896 . This riding was created in 1873 when Prince Edward Island joined the Canadian Confederation .

The Turkish Land Forces ( Turkish : Türk Kara Kuvvetleri ) , or Turkish Army ( Turkish : Türk Ordusu ) , is the main branch of the Turkish Armed Forces responsible for land-based military operations . Official sources trace the army 's foundation to Modu Chanyu of the Xiongnu Empire in 209 BC , but the modern history of the army began with its formation after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire . Significant events since the foundation of the army include combat in the Korean War and in the 1974 Turkish invasion of Cyprus , and acting as a NATO bulwark along Cold War frontiers through 1992 . The army holds the preeminent place within the armed forces . It is customary for the Chief of the General Staff of the Republic of Turkey to have been the Commander of the Turkish Land Forces prior to his appointment as Turkey 's senior ranking officer . Alongside the other two armed services , the Turkish Army has frequently intervened in Turkish politics , which has now been regulated to an extent with the reform of the National Security Council . The current commander of the Turkish Land Forces is General Yaşar Güler . In late 2015 , reports suggested the Turkish Army ( along with the rest of the Armed Forces ) saw their personnel strengths increase to similar levels of the 2000s . Factors that contributed to this growth included further destabilization of Syria and Iraq due to ISIL and the Russian intervention in Syria , as well as a renewed insurgency of the Kurdistan Workers ' Party Turkey 's south east .

It first appeared when the original Yale District riding , which was created and filled by special byelection in 1871 at the time of BC 's entry into the Canadian Confederation , was abolished and replaced by Yale riding . Yale riding spanned both Yale and Kootenay Land Districts , that is to say , the entirety of the southern province from the Fraser Canyon to the Rockies . It was last used in the 1891 election , and was merged in 1892 with the Cariboo riding to form Yale - Cariboo . That arrangement lasted until 1914 when a further redistribution separated Yale and Cariboo once again . This second incarnation was considerably smaller than the first because Kootenay district was now in a different riding . In 1903 , the riding of Kootenay was split off from what had been the original Yale riding . The new Yale riding excluded the Town of Yale , and when it was reconstituted , coincided with the provincial Okanagan riding except for the city of Salmon Arm . The new incarnation of Yale lasted until the 1952 , when the Yale name vanished from the Commons and the Okanagan ridings , Okanagan Boundary and Okanagan - Revelstoke were created . The old core area around the town of historic and once-important Yale , which has long since became depopulated by being bypassed by massive growth elsewhere , was attached to the Fraser Valley riding , then to its successor Fraser Valley East , and then to today 's Chilliwack - Fraser Canyon . It was not in the second incarnation of the Yale riding when it was reconstituted in 1914 .
The British Army is the principal land warfare force of the United Kingdom , a part of British Armed Forces . As of 2019 [ update ] , the British Army comprises just over 79,300 trained regular ( full-time ) personnel and just over 27,200 trained reserve ( part-time ) personnel . The modern British Army traces back to 1707 , with an antecedent in the English Army that was created during the Restoration in 1660 . The term British Army was adopted in 1707 after the Acts of Union between England and Scotland . Members of the British Army swear allegiance to the monarch as their commander-in-chief , but the Bill of Rights of 1689 requires parliamentary consent for the Crown to maintain a peacetime standing army . Therefore , Parliament approves the army by passing an Armed Forces Act at least once every five years . The army is administered by the Ministry of Defence and commanded by the Chief of the General Staff . The British Army has seen action in major wars between the world 's great powers , including the Seven Years ' War , the Napoleonic Wars , the Crimean War and the First and Second World Wars . Britain 's victories in these decisive wars allowed it to influence world events and establish itself as one of the world 's leading military and economic powers . Since the end of the Cold War , the British Army has been deployed to a number of conflict zones , often as part of an expeditionary force , a coalition force or part of a United Nations peacekeeping operation .
