The Seventh Canadian Ministry was the cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Sir Charles Tupper. It governed Canada from 1 May to 8 July 1896. It was formed after the 7th Canadian Parliament was dissolved, and lost the 8th Canadian federal election, so it never faced a parliament. The government was formed by the old Conservative Party of Canada.

gollark: C influences CPU design though, that's the thing.

gollark: We're stuck on concepts like memory being a giant linear array, programs having one thread of control, and probably other things I can't think of now.

gollark: CPUs are basically just "execute C-like-code really fast" machines instead of, well, something else, like GPUs.

gollark: Kind of a shame stuff is generally just forced to map onto really outdated machines from ye olden C era.

gollark: Though this is perhaps more of an issue of programmers, languages and tooling more than hardware issues.
