Show detail Hide detail

This series documents Fraser`s active involvement with the Liberal Party of Canada between 1953 and 1965, including his two attempts to be elected to the House of Commons. Although there are few records relating to Fraser's first campaign in Esquimalt-Saanich, B.C., the series does contain extensive documentation about his second electoral campaign in Pictou, N.S.

The series also includes records created and kept by Fraser during his political appointments to various Liberal ministers. These records include correspondence with such well known political figures as Judy LaMarsh, Paul Hellyer, Jack Pickersgill, Arthur Laing, James Sinclair and Allan MacEachen. They cover a broad range of topics inlcuding Liberal Party policy, the CBC, divorce, immigration, adoption, taxation and the passage of bills through the House of Commons and the Senate.
