The Secret Society of Muttonchops

From left to right; George Brown (nearly assassinated!), Alexander Campbell (kind of boring actually) and Charles Tupper who looks exceedingly grumpy in every picture I’ve seen of him. His enemy Joseph Howe called him “The Wicked Wasp of Cumberland.”

What is a muttonchop, you ask? Well it should be evident from the picture above but if you need more clarification click here.

Of course they would probably never join a secret society revolving around their shared style of facial hair. They probably would have just hated each other.

I guess they kind of missed the trend, but there were no examples that I can find of a CCF/Labour/Progressive/Ginger/United Farmer with muttonchops. They were around at the turn of the century, but either A) at that point it was no longer chique or B) muttonchops are for the rich. I wanted to have a representative of the farther-left to complete the trifecta but none was to be had.
