Following his father's resignation, Bill Bennett was elected on September 7, 1973, as the British Columbia Social Credit League Member of the British Columbia Legislative Assembly for South Okanagan. His father was also named William but was usually called "W.A.C." in the media or "Ceece" by his friends. To distinguish the son from his father, he was usually called "Bill." Some in the media referred to the younger Bennett as "Mini-Wac," which was derived from another of his father's nicknames, "Wacky." The nickname was created by his opponents but also embraced by some supporters.
