Woman Suffrage would abolish soldiers and war, also racing, hunting, football, cricket and all such manly games ... Women suffragists are the worst kind of socialists. Their idea of freedom is polyandry, free love, lease marriages and so on. Are these the qualifications for the franchise! Are we going to allow women who would sap the very foundations of a nation to have votes?

—Frank Madden, MLA, 1895
