Diefenbaker faces Quebec rift amid throne speech glare
Ottawa report notes Conservative leader John Diefenbaker sought Quebec support for Leon Baker as party leader in Quebec during a tense confrontation over a party resolution. Baker claimed seniority and leadership status while Diefenbaker offered a partial reconciliation, signaling ongoing strife within the party along linguistic lines. Pearson’s London Paris diplomacy plan collided with Quebec and France opposition, prompting a French-speaking ambassador swap. The throne speech offered modest new items, including student loans and intended Senate retirement age, amid a lengthy parliamentary agenda on pensions, redistribution, rail, unemployment, defense, and the Columbia River treaty.
