Vegreville: Albert Ernest Archer

Albert Ernest Archer received 4,806 votes (28.45%), finishing second against Social Credit incumbent Anthony Hlynka. See his biography for further details.

Wetaskiwin: Robert Henry Charles Harrison

Robert Harrison was a barrister. He received 3,040 votes (16.68%), finishing fourth against Social Credit incumbent Norman Jaques.

The website of the Glenbow Museum of Alberta includes references to a Queen's Counsel named Robert H. Harrison, who was inducted as an honorary chief of the Tsuu T'ina Nation in 1967. It is possible that this is the same person as the 1945 candidate.
