His career in legislatures of the North-West Territories and Saskatchewan stretched into four decades. He served as the first premier of the North-West Territories from 1897 to 1905 and is recognized as having a significant contribution towards the creation of the provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan. From 1905 on he served as Leader of the Official Opposition in Saskatchewan as well as leader of the Provincial Rights Party. His legislative career ended when he was appointed to the judiciary in 1912.

Early life

He was born in Woolwich, England in 1857, the son of Frederick W. Haultain (1821–1882) and Lucinde Helen Gordon (1828–1915),<ref>Perry, Craig 2006, pg. 161</ref> and came to Peterborough, Canada West, with his family in 1860. He grew up in Peterborough and Montreal, where he was educated at the High School of Montreal, later receiving a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Toronto. He later studied law at Osgoode Hall and was called to the bar in Ontario in 1882 and in the North-West Territories in 1884.<ref>'HAULTAIN, Frederick William Gordon', in The Canadian Who's Who (1909)</ref>

North-West territorial politics

Haultain in 1884

In 1884, Haultain opened a law practice in Fort Macleod. He also served as Crown prosecutor there for several years, and also was an editor for newspapers in Fort Macleod and Lethbridge. Haultain was elected to the Legislative Assembly of the North-West Territories in a by-election held on September 5, 1887. He defeated Charles Conybeare by a large margin. Representing the electoral district of Macleod in the North-West Territorial Council from 1887 to 1888. Haultain won his next five elections by acclamation.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

The editor of the Calgary Herald once wrote of him saying that "He is a man of academic training and large, clear perception; straightforward and manly even towards his enemies. In some respects, he is the most finished debater ever heard on a Western platform, arraying his Facts in crisp, clear-cut sentences, and then pressing home his argument with logic and Force?"<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>

Premier

Haultain was appointed premier of the North-West Territories on October 7, 1897. Haultain also served as Attorney General and Commissioner of Education.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web

}}</ref> As premier, Haultain led negotiations for the granting of provincial status. He argued for Alberta and Saskatchewan to be admitted as a single province named Buffalo,Template:Sfn and wanted the new province to be governed by non-partisan governments. The federal Liberal government of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, however, decided against such a large province and favoured creating two provinces, Alberta and Saskatchewan, which eventually happened in 1905.

Frustrated in negotiations with the federal Liberal government, Haultain increasingly identified with the Conservative Party and campaigned for it in the 1904 federal election. Laurier's Liberals were re-elected to a majority of seats in the House of Commons, and took two seats in the Alberta district, Conservative party candidates taking the other two.<ref>Mardon and Mardon, Alberta Election Results, p. 151</ref>

Saskatchewan politics

After Alberta and Saskatchewan became provinces in 1905, Haultain chose to be active in Saskatchewan. He led the Saskatchewan Provincial Rights Party in the 1905 Saskatchewan provincial election, which was won by the Liberal Party of Saskatchewan. From 1905 to 1912, Haultain sat in the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan as leader of the Opposition.

Later life

In 1912, the newly elected Conservative federal government of Sir Robert Borden made Haultain Chief Justice of Saskatchewan's superior court. Haultain was knighted in 1916. The next year, he became Chief Justice of the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal, a position that he held until his retirement in 1938.

Haultain died on January 30, 1942, at Montreal.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
