Sir Mackenzie Bowell began his career with lusty Orange prejudices, but by the 1880s his fighting spirit was subsumed within Conservative politics and his Orange positions had softened. According to the Toronto Globe, it was Bowell who succeeded in making the Orange order more friendly to Catholics. That tolerance was born of political necessity.
Bowell had originally come from Suffolk, England and once he was in Canada he became a prominent member of the Orangemen which was a pro-protestant anti-Catholic group. From his base in Belleville he organized and ran as the Tory candidate under MacDonald and was elected to Parliament in 1867.
