Progressive Party Of Saskatchewan
The Progressive Party of Saskatchewan was a provincial section of the Progressive Party of Canada, and was active from the beginning of the 1920s to the mid-1930s. The Progressives were an agrarian social democratic political movement. Dedicated to political and economic reform, the Progressive movement challenged economic policies that favoured the financial and industrial interests in Central Canada over agrarian and, to a lesser extent, labour interests. Like its federal counterpart, it favoured free trade over protectionism. The movement can be considered the first partisan expression of western alienation in Canada. In Saskatchewan, the Progressive Party contested three general elections. In its final election in 1929, the party had five members elected, who joined a coalition government with J. T. M. Anderson's Conservative Party. In the mid-1930s, the agrarian social democratic mantle was taken up by the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation, which many Progressives joine ...

Canadian Provincial Electoral Districts
Canadian provincial electoral districts have boundaries that are non- coterminous with those of the federal electoral districts, except for districts in the province of Ontario, where districts in the Southern Ontario region are coterminous while those in Northern Ontario are not. Otherwise, provincial electoral districts tend instead to be smaller, ranging from just over half the size of each federal district (Quebec) to a seventh (PEI). Like their federal counterparts, Canadian provincial electoral districts are commonly called ridings.
