Canada News: "The CBC's biography of Douglas lauds "his staunch devotion to social



causes." Most notably, Canada's '"father of Medicare' stayed true to



his socialist beliefs - often at the cost of his own political



fortune." Born at Falkirk, Scotland, in 1904, after nine years as a



Member of Parliament (Regina, Saskatchewan, Co-operative Commonwealth



Federation) in the House of Commons, early in 1944 Douglas was elected



leader of the provincial CCF in Saskatchewan.
