An entertaining and theatrical speaker, John Diefenbaker was a Canadian populist who combined Conservative politics with social justice issues. Of neither French nor English ancestry, John Diefenbaker worked hard to include Canadians of other ethnic backgrounds. Diefenbaker gave Western Canada a high profile, but Quebeckers considered him unsympathetic.
John Diefenbaker had mixed success on the international front. Diefenbaker championed international human rights, but his confused defence policy and economic nationalism caused tension with the United States.
