Nellie McClung 1873-1951She was one of the most important leaders of Canada's first wave of feminism, and she is still remembered for her role in the famous "Person's Case" which saw Canadian women declared persons in 1929.Nellie Letitia Mooney was born in Ontario in 1873, and moved to Manitoba when she was seven years old. Nellie, a lively, talkative little girl, began teaching school in rural Manitoba when she was just 16 years old. As a young woman she became involved in social reform and joined the Women's Christian Temperance Union(WCTU), which was especially concerned with the social and health problems caused by alcohol. The group fought many other social problems facing women and children, and spearheaded the campaign for women's right to vote in many parts of the country.In 1896 Nellie married Robert Wesley McClung, the son of one of Nellie's friends in the WCTU. The couple eventually had five children and in 1911 the family moved to Winnipeg where Nellie McClung continued her career as a social reformer. The suffrage movement was in its heyday during her years in Winnipeg. McClung continued to be active in the WCTU, but she also joined the Winnipeg Political Equality League, a group committed to helping the female wage earners of the city, and the Canadian Women's Press Club. She led Manitoba Premier Rodmond Roblin through the city's sweatshops to demonstrate the appalling working conditions many women faced. When Roblin suggested "nice" women did not want the vote, Nellie McClung retorted: "By nice women...you probably mean selfish women who have no more thought for the underprivileged, overworked women than a pussycat in a sunny window for the starving kitten in the street. Now in that sense I am not a nice woman for I do care."Premier Roblin strongly opposed giving women the right to vote, and in 1914 Nellie McClung and her fellow reformers wanted to defeat him. They put on a play called "The Women's Parliament," a satire which turned the tables and poked fun at the dangers of giving men the right to vote. Nellie McClung's parody of premier Roblin's arguments caused uproarious laughter for packed and enthusiastic audiences. Although Roblin's Conservative government was re-elected, his victory was short-lived. The next year the suffragists helped to defeat him and in 1916 the new Liberal government gave the vote to Manitoba women. Women in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and British Columbia gained the right to vote in provincial elections the same year, and the other provinces soon followed. (However, it is important to note that women of Asian and First Nations descent were denied the right to vote until after World War II.) A major victory had been won. Newspapers and politicians gave Nellie McClung much of the credit.In 1914 the McClungs moved again, this time to Edmonton, Alberta, where Nellie McClung continued her political literary career. She joined the Edmonton Equal Franchise League which fought for women's rights, prohibition and factory safety legislation. In 1921 she was elected as a Liberal member of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta where she fought for mother's allowances, public health nursing, free medical and dental care for children, liberalised birth control, divorce laws, and improved property rights for married women. Her career as an elected politician was brief. She was defeated in 1925 after serving only one term. In 1927 she joined Emily Murphy, Irene Parlby, Louise McKinney, and Henrietta Edwards for what would become known as "The Person's Case." What was at issue was whether women could be appointed to the Canadian Senate. Canada's constitution, then the British North America Act, stated that one must be a "person" to serve in the Senate, but in 1928 the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that when the BNA Act was written in 1867, the term "person" was not meant to include women, but only men. The women appealed the decision to the Judicial Committee of the British Privy Council, then the highest court for Canadian constitutional interpretation. In October 1929 the Judicial Committee ruled that Canadian women were, in fact, persons and could be appointed to the Senate.Through the 1930s McClung's writing career flourished with the publishing of newspaper articles, short stories, another novel, and her memoirs. Supporter of women's right to be ministers in the United Church of Canada, delegate to the League of Nations, and the first women appointed to the CBC's Board of Governors were added to the continuing list of her accomplishments. Through the Canadian Authors' Association and Canadian Women's Press Club she was also a strong promoter of cultural nationalism. Though she died in Victoria in 1951, she has continued to live in the spirit of Canadian women's ongoing struggle to achieve social, economic and political equality.

1. vice presidents became more involved in the activities of the executive branch 副总统越来越多的参与（牵涉入）了行政部门的工作。 2. 其中if not more 意思是：如果不会比他多（也会是一样的程度）。 整句话是说，自Walter Mondale 副总统以后的四位副总统参与行政部门工作的程度就算不比他多，也至少是一样的。 3. Wish lish 通常翻为：期望清单，Come November：到了十一月份。Fit reality 当然是在竞选过程中啦，随时调整策略嘛，现在Obama不就选择Hillary Clinton做他的running mate了吗？ 4. all this ：A. The Constitution gives the vice president three responsibilities. B. vice presidents became more involved in the activities of the executive branch. C. And he became one of his top advisers. D. One thing candidates look for is someone to help balance their own weaknesses. E. VOTES FROM SUPPORTERS OF THE RUNNING MATE.

根据选举法规定：差额选举，如需要选举要3人，就得4个人在上面，只能选三， 选4个就是废票，3个以下为有效票，另选他人的可以在后面填写，但不得超过三人，超过为无效票，只有少于3人为有效票。采取以无记名投票。必须有监票、机票各两人，由大家公开推荐产生，选举委员会审查通过方可。自己可以投自己一票，选举法有规定的。不到会的也可以委托他人带票，但带票者不得带超过2人，加自己只有3票的权利。选举人员总数在选举时候，必须清理人数，到会必须超过半数，否则无效。当选者票数必须超过半数，否则无效。都不超过半数者，选举失败，要重新选举。我主持大型选举有10多次了。

1. 执行机构（专属用语，专用于副总统和其手下组成的小组）2. 自Walter Mondale以来的四任总统都被连累的差不多，或者更多。if not more我感觉应该是：如果不是只会更多的意思3. 心愿的单子，fit reality要看前后文了，可能是符合竞选的实际，或者是民情的实际。come november可以直译“到了11月份”4. 原文中说到副总统有三大职能：统领参议员，打破参议院中平手的投票（裁决者的意思），如有意外（死亡，残疾，辞任）代替现任总统。然后还是像之前说的副总统有其专门的执行机构来履行参议院的一些职责。all this就是之前列出的全部：包括副总统的职责，权力的提高，参与的事情增多等等。希望能帮到你
