- Prosperity_for_Posterity_Party abstract "The Prosperity for Posterity Party (PPP) was a short-lived political party in Manitoba, Canada. It was established for the 1953 provincial election, but dissolved before the election took place.The party was established by William Bayley, who had served in the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba in the 1920s as a Labour representative. Bayley was a staunch prohibitionist, and opposed 1950s efforts to liberalize Manitoba's liquor laws. He was particularly opposed to the policies of Stephen Juba, who had called for a provincial referendum on the issue.The PPP was primarily a vehicle for Bayley to voice his temperance policies. The party's manifesto stated that it would \"approach all questions from the standpoint of welfare of future generations\". It also issued a five-point platform:Opposing any extension of Manitoba's liquor laws (especially the plan favoured by Juba)Re-establishing temperance courses in Manitoba's public school systemLowering the voting age to 18Hastening the process of school consolidationMaking cabinet ministers responsible for morale in their departmentsThe PPP held its first and only nomination meeting in Winnipeg on April 29, 1953. After no other volunteers came forward, Bayley agreed to campaign for the party in Winnipeg South on condition that 100 supporters provide financial backing. He fell short of his target, but nonetheless entered the contest a short time thereafter. Bayley withdrew from the contest before election day, however, claiming that his candidacy could split the temperance vote.In withdrawing, Bayley made the following statement: \"I choose to withdraw, thanking the friends of temperance, and of me personally, both those who paid me to run and those who said don't, and apologizing to Winnipeg Centre electors for ever thinking they wouldn't adequately deal with Mr. Juba\". (Winnipeg Free Press, 23 May 1953)".
