Show detail Hide detail

This series concerns the activities of Jean Chrétien, M.P. for the riding of Saint-Maurice and Minister responsible for the ridings of Champlain, Berthier-Maskinongé-Lanaudière, Trois-Rivières, Hull, Pontiac-Gatineau-Labelle, Drummond and others, from 1980 to 1984. During this period, he held the respective offices of Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, Minister of State for Social Development responsible for constitutional negotiations (1980-1982), and Minister of Energy, Mines and Resources (1982-1984).

Thus, this series chiefly concerns Jean Chrétien's activities as M.P. for the riding of Saint-Maurice (and Minister responsible for other constituencies), where he strove to bolster his electoral support by working closely with and promoting the Liberal Party among constituents and other voters. To a lesser degree it concerns his activities as a Minister, which varied according to the portfolio.

This series consists mainly of correspondence, working papers, reference materials, grant applications and, to a lesser degree, other document types (see sub-series).

It is divided into three sub-series: Subject Files, Correspondence, and LaPrade Fund.

General Note:

We should note that the majority of records in this series did not originate from the constituency office, but usually from the Parliament Hill office (from which the business of the Saint-Maurice riding - and other ridings under Jean Chrétien's authority - was largely managed).

Conservation:

The records of this series are in excellent general condition, and robust measures were taken to preserve them: all metal pieces were removed, newspaper clippings were removed and replaced with photocopies, records in a fragile state of preservation were also photocopied, etc. Lastly, records were removed from their original folders and placed in acid-free folders.

Language note:

The records in the series are in French and English.
