=== Explanatory notes === {{notelist | refs = {{efn | name = anglicized | {{harvnb|Smith|1995|p=3}}. Following his father's death, William Diefenbaker anglicized the spelling of "Diefenbacher", and changed its pronunciation so that the "baker" part of the name is pronounced like the English word "baker". }} {{efn | name = childhood ambition | {{harvnb|Smith|1995|p=14}}. Upon his brother's accession to the prime ministership, Elmer Diefenbaker sent him a letter recalling this childhood ambition. }} {{efn | name = phrasing | The exact phrasing of what Diefenbaker said to Laurier varies from source to source. }} {{efn | name = H. J. Fraser | {{harvnb|Smith|1995|p=75}}. Thirty years later, the winning candidate, H. J. Fraser, challenged Diefenbaker for his parliamentary seat, and was defeated by a 5-to-1 margin. {{harvnb|Newman|1963|p=21}}. }} {{efn | name = 1957 seats | {{harvnb|Meisel|1962|p=291}}. The 112th seat was not obtained until July 15, as the election in one riding was not held until then due to the death of the original Liberal candidate. {{harvnb|Meisel|1962|p=235}}. Additionally, the Liberal victory in Yukon was vacated by the [[Yukon Territorial Court]] and a Tory won the new election in December 1957. {{harvnb|Meisel|1962|p=239}}. }} {{efn | name = Avro jobs | {{harvnb|Smith|1995|pp=317β320}}. Over 50,000 other jobs were affected in the supply chain. {{harvnb|Peden|1987|p=157}}. }} {{efn | name = Kim Campbell | [[Kim Campbell]] also became a PC Prime Minister, but she never won an election to gain that role. }} {{efn | name = One Canada | Diefenbaker was a [[teetotaler]]. ({{harvnb|Diefenbaker|1976|pp=191}}) }} }}
