evangelical Protestantism : the context of religious
interpretation in Alberta -- Religion and the political
thought of Henry Wise Wood : liberal postmillennialism and

Religion and the political thought of William Aberhart and
Ernest Manning : fundamentalist premillennialism and anti-
socialist sentiment in Alberta -- Religion, political
thought, and public policy in contemporary Alberta :
social conservatism vs the anti-statist religious
perspective of Preston Manning -- Conclusion.
520 "Relative to the United States, it is assumed that
religion has not been a significant factor in Canada's
political development. In God's Province, Clark Banack
challenges this assumption, showing that, in Alberta,
religious motivation played a vital role in shaping its
initial political trajectory. For Henry Wise Wood,
president of the United Farmers of Alberta from 1916 until
1931, William "Bible Bill" Aberhart, founder of the
Alberta Social Credit and premier from 1935 until 1943,
Aberhart's protégé Ernest Manning, Alberta's longest
serving premier (1943-1968), and Manning's son Preston,
founder of the Alberta-based federal Reform Party of
Canada, religion was central to their thinking about human
agency, the purpose of politics, the role of the state,
the nature of the economy, and the proper duties of
citizens. Drawing on substantial archival research God's
Province highlights the strong link that exists between
the religiously inspired political thought and action of
these formative leaders, the US evangelical Protestant
tradition from which they drew, and the emergence of an
individualistic, populist, and anti-statist sentiment in
Alberta that is largely unfamiliar to the rest of Canada.
Covering nearly a century of Alberta's history, Banack
offers an illuminating reconsideration of the political
thought of these leaders, the goals of the movements they
led, and the roots of Alberta's distinctiveness within
Canada. A fusion of religious history, intellectual
history, and political thought, God's Province exposes the
ways in which the individual intentions of politicians
shape one province's political culture."--|cProvided by
