General Description : | The Right Honourable Louis Stephen St. Laurent served as the Prime Minister of Canada from November 15, 1948 to June 21, 1957. An eloquent spokesman for Canadian unity, St. Laurent, a gentleman of politics, was affectionately known as "Uncle Louis" by the Canadian people. Born in 1882 in the small rural community of Compton in Québec's Eastern Townships, Louis St. Laurent grew up in a bilingual and bicultural milieu. His father was a French Canadian general merchant and his mother, a school teacher before her marriage, came from English Canadian background. |
