There was political alienation as more and more voters complained of the indifference and incompetence of both the national leadership of Prime Minister Bennett and the Conservative party, as well as the provincial leadership of Liberal Premier Louis-Alexandre Taschereau. Many of the discontented gravitated toward the ultramontane nationalists especially Henri Bourassa, editor of "Le Devoir", and the highly traditional Catholic writer Lionel Groulx, editor of "L'action canadienne-française". Building on this disenchantment, Maurice Duplessis led the new "Union nationale" party to victory in 1936 with 58% of the vote and became premier.
