Me: Guy Saint-Julien, Liberal, Abitibi.
Mother: Oza Tétreault, Social Credit Rally, Villeneuve
Father: Réal Caouette, Social Credit Rally, Villeneuve

Social Credit was a very wierd party based on rural Quebec (and rural western Canada) known for its various splits. The Quebec wing was led by Réal Caouette, which had a TV show every Saturday night. Rural people were listening to it very religiously. He had an huge charisma, it helped. It was very very very conservative socially, to not say far-right (foreigners, fornicators, non-Christians, Jews, bankers were all evil).

It had a very wierd economical platform called Social Credit, which was based on the "democratic control of credit" through government fixing the total amount of money avaliable in the economy, a mechanism to adjust prices so they fit their real production cost and a basic universal income for everyone.

Me:
-Sen. Alan Cranston (D-CA)
-Sen. Pete Wilson (R-CA)

Mom:
-Sen. Thomas Kuchel (R-CA)
-Sen. Clair Engle (D-CA)

Dad:
-Sen. Frank Lausche (D-OH)
-Sen. Stephen M. Young (D-OH)

I have no idea as to the Congressperson for each. I'd really need to see some maps, with at least some detail, for both the post-1950 redistricting and post-1980 redistricting. From what I can tell, in terms of current districts, I was born in what is currently CA-53 (CA-13 for my mom and OH-11 for my dad).
