70-page transcript of an event organized by Craig Fraser. The event was convened on May 14, 1966 at the Rideau Club in Ottawa to discuss the life and times of Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King. The event included the Rt. Hon. Jack Pickersgill, the Hon. Justice Douglas Abbott, the Hon. Senator Grattan O'Leary, the Rev. Ian Burnett , the Rt. Hon. Pierre Elliott Trudeau, Fred A. McGregor and Walter James Turnbull. All the participants knew Prime Minister King, some intimately, and all were prepared to share and debate strongly held opinions about Prime Minister King's legacy. Among other things, the participants discussed the King-Byng affair, the conscription crisis of 1944, King's interest in spiritualism, his relationship with money, and his legacy.
