the cooperative commonwealth federation, a political party that was later reformed as the new democratic party, was founded on social gospel principles in the 1930s by j. s. woodsworth, a methodist minister, and alberta mp william irvine. woodsworth wrote extensively about the social gospel from experiences gained while working with immigrant slum dwellers in winnipeg from 1904 to 1913. his writings called for the kingdom of god "here and now". this political party took power in the province of saskatchewan in 1944. this group, led by tommy douglas, a baptist minister, introduced universal medicare, family allowance and old age pensions. this political party has since largely lost its religious basis, and became a secular social democratic party.
