John Thomas Hackett, Q.C., (June 12, 1884 – September 15, 1956) was a lawyer and political figure in Quebec. He represented Stanstead in the Canadian House of Commons from 1930 to 1935 and from 1945 to 1949 as a Conservative and then as a Progressive Conservative member. He sat for the Victoria division in the Senate of Canada from 1955 to 1956. He was born in Stanstead, Quebec, the son of Michael Felix Hackett and Florence Alberta Knight, and was educated at St. Charles Seminary and the law school at McGill University. In 1912, he married Linda Harding. Hackett served as a member of the board of governors for McGill University. He was Batonnier of the Bar Association of Montreal and also President of the Canadian Bar Association, from 1947 to 1948.〔(Canadian Bar Association: Past CBA Presidents )〕 He was also president of the Stanstead County Historical Society and a lieutenant in the militia. In 1948, while serving as the President of the Canadian Bar Association and MP for Stanstead, Hackett spoke in the House of Commons against a proposal that the position of chief commissioner of the Board of Transport Commissioners be designated as open only to a judge of the Exchequer Court of Canada. Hackett was concerned that the proposal would blur the lines between the quasi-political and policy role of the Board, compared to the traditional neutrality of judges, and could undermine popular respect for the judiciary as neutral arbiters.〔Ian Bushnell, ''The Federal Court of Canada: A History, 1875-1992'' (Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1997), p. 126.〕 Hackett died in office at the age of 72. == References ==
