Students in one section of PS 101 are looking for election campaign pamphlets and advertisements. For students doing older elections (1911 has come up twice so far today) browsing by date in the Globe and Mail (election date of September 21st I think) for the month before seemed to work. The editorial page (page 6) has election cartoons that they can use.
Also Maclean’s in microfilm, browsing by date, but no takers for that so far.
RBSC does have election pamphlets available, not sure how far back they go. The catalogue record says “Elections: federal, provincial or municipal”, and basically they are filed by date and level of government.

Thanks for this, Ellen! 1969 has come up at the desk as well, and the Globe and Mail seemed to do the trick.
