charles stewart (canadian politician)

Charles Stewart (August 26, 1868 - December 6, 1946) was a Canadian politician who was Premier of Alberta from 1917 to 1921. Stewart entered the provincial legislature as a Liberal MLA in the 1909 provincial election. In 1912, he was appointed to the provincial Cabinet, first as minister of municipal affairs, and later as public works minister. When Premier Sifton joined the federal government, Stewart became the new Premier. His Liberals, however, were divided by railway scandals and by the Conscription crisis of 1917, The party lost the 1921 election to the United Farmers of Alberta. Following this defeat, Stewart entered the federal cabinet of William Lyon Mackenzie King serving as minister of the interior, minister of mines and superintendent general of Indian affairs until 1930 (except for during the 1926 Meighen government when Stewart joined the Liberals in opposition).
