Scope and content

E.C. Leslie, Chancellor, University of Regina; George F. Curtis, Dean of Law, University of Calgary; and Walter A. Tucker chat at an unidentified event.

Bio/Historical Note: Everett Clayton Leslie (1893-1978) contributed to the profession of Law and post-secondary education in his adopted province of Saskatchewan. He served with the 85th Battalion, Nova Scotia Highlanders during World War I. Following his return from Europe, he earned a BA from Acadia University and an LLB from the University of Saskatchewan. In addition to carrying on a general law practice, he served as a member of the Board of Governors of the U of S and was installed as the first Chancellor of the University of Regina in October 1974. Leslie was awarded honourary degrees from Acadia and Queen’s universities and the University of Saskatchewan (1959), Leslie was appointed an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1969.

Bio/Historical Note: Walter Adam Tucker (1899-1990) earned his BA from the University of Manitoba and an LLB from the University of Saskatchewan. He won a seat in the House of Commons of Canada where he was a Liberal MP for Rosthern, Saskatchewan from 1935-1948. Tucker served as parliamentary assistant to the Minister of Veterans Affairs from 1945-1948. He moved to provincial politics to lead the Saskatchewan Liberal Party in the 1948 provincial election against the CCF government of Tommy Douglas promoting the Liberals as the defenders of capitalism against the socialist CCF. While Tucker was able to win a seat in the provincial legislature and become Leader of the Opposition, he failed in his attempts to defeat the CCF government in 1948 and then again in 1952. Tucker resigned his seat in the provincial legislature in 1953 and returned to the federal House of Commons in the 1953 federal election. Tucker was re-elected in the 1957 election but was defeated in the Diefenbaker landslide the following year in the 1958 election. In 1963 Tucker was appointed to the Court of Queen's Bench of Saskatchewan where he served as a judge until 1974.
