Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Charles Wilson Cross (November 30, 1872 June 2, 1928) was a Canadian politician who served in the Legislative Assembly of Alberta and the Canadian House of Commons. He was also the first Attorney- General of Alberta. Born in Ontario, he studied law at Osgoode Hall Law School before coming west to practice in Edmonton. He became active with the Liberal Party of Canada, and when Alberta was created in 1905 he was chosen by Premier Alexander Cameron Rutherford to be its first Attorney-General. Implicated in the Alberta and Great Waterways Railway scandal, he resigned in 1910 along with the rest of Rutherford''s government. As a backbencher, he became the leader of Liberals opposed to the government of Rutherford''s successor, Arthur Sifton, until Sifton re-appointed him Attorney-General in 1912. Cross served in this capacity under Sifton and his successor Charles Stewart until 1918, when Stewart fired him after receiving no response to his request for Cross''s resignation. Cross remained in provincial politics until 1925, but in a radically diminished role.
