Marter and Patrick Brown are the only permanent Ontario Conservative leaders who did not lead the party into an election. Early careerAfter graduating from grammar school in Brantford Marter became a merchant and county councillor in Norfolk County, but later moved to operate a general store Bracebridge, Ontario.[1] PoliticsMarter was elected for the riding of Muskoka from 1886 to 1894 and Toronto North from 1894 to 1902. Marter became Conservative leader following the defeat of William Ralph Meredith during the 1894 election. The Conservative Party he led was aligned with the Protestant Protective Association in the legislature, and was divided by religious conflict and narrow bigotry. Marter was essentially an interim leader. In 1896, he was replaced as leader by James P. Whitney. He was defeated when he ran as an Independent in the 1902 election. Later lifeFollowing his political career Marter became an insurance agent/manager of the London and Lancashire Insurance Company of Toronto and later co-founder of Marter Hall Company Limited with his son.[2] Marter died in Toronto in 1907.
