Conservative or New Democrat?

27 January 2010

It’s speculation perhaps, but if “Berliner” Kehler’s political favour rested within the boundaries of the Conservatives, how easily would he have crossed the room to support strong ties with that of his descendants?  

In 1969, Ed Schreyer persuaded Elmer (Al) Reimer, 42, grandson of “Berliner” Kehler, to run in the La Verendrye riding, which included Steinbach.  Al Reimer had respectable academic credentials, elevating NDP favour.  While English Professor Al’s political career failed to get off the ground, his academic career was later deemed highly successful.  This ad was found in The Carillon News, June 1969.
