| dbo:abstract | Michel Auger (November 18, 1830 – May 12, 1909) was a Canadian politician, farmer and mill owner. He was elected to the House of Commons of Canada in the 1882 federal election as an Independent Liberal, representing the riding of Shefford. Born in St. Pie, Lower Canada, Auger was educated at the Grand Ligne Mission School and at the Hamilton Academy in Hamilton, New York. In 1856, he married Priscilla Nicol. Auger served five years as mayor of Sainte-Prudentienne, a village now within the modern municipality of Roxton Pond. He first ran in the 1878 election as an Independent Liberal in opposition to the party's incumbent MP Lucius Seth Huntington, but was defeated by Huntington. In 1882, however, local Conservative supporters swung solidly behind Auger in a bid to punish Huntington for his role in exposing the Pacific Scandal, resulting in Auger's election. He ran for reelection in the 1887 election as an Independent Liberal, but was defeated by Conservative Antoine Audet. He died in Toronto in 1909. (en) Michel Auger (18 novembre 1830 – 12 mai 1909) fut un agriculteur, propriétaire d'usine et homme politique fédéral et municipal du Québec. Auger naquit à Saint-Pie, au Bas-Canada, dans une famille canadienne-française catholique qui se convertira au protestantisme. Il fit ses études à la Grande-Ligne Mission School (Institut Feller) et à la Hamilton Academy, située à Hamilton, dans l'État de New York. Il entama ses premiers pas en politique en devenant maire de la municipalité de Sainte-Pudentienne, aujourd'hui Roxton Pond. Élu député indépendant du Parti libéral du Canada dans le comté de Shefford en 1882, il avait précédemment tenté d'être élu en 1878. Par la suite, il fut défait par le conservateur Antoine Audet en 1887. Son neveu Jacob Nicol fit lui aussi carrière en politique. (fr) |
