	Canadian federal election, 1963 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Canadian federal election of 1963 was held to elect members of the Canadian House of Commons.

		They were again disappointed by the failure of their new partnership with the labour movement to produce an electoral breakthrough, particularly in the province of Ontario, which has the largest population and the largest number of seats in the House of Commons.

		The 1962 election was the first contested by the social democratic New Democratic Party, which had been formed from an alliance between the old Co-operative Commonwealth Federation and the Canadian Labour Congress.

	Canadian Election Law & Policies
		Elections Canada also provides a number of plain English overviews of the laws and policies governing the conduct of federal elections.
		The specific limits on candidates' election expenses for the 2004 election vary from riding to riding because they are based on the number of electors in a constituency, but they will be set at the time it is called.
		This law was challenged during the 2000 election, by Stephen Harper when he headed up the National Citizens Coalition, on the grounds that the law is an unconstitutional limit on the freedom of expression and of the voters' rights to be fully informed of all points of view.

		The USA has been key to Canadian self-definition from the beginning, for the establishment of the United States was the beginning of the establishment of a boundary that would define Canada territorially.
		Indeed, though Canadians are quite properly pleased to be able to claim victory against the USA in the War of 1812, no one doubts that the presence of professional imperial forces was significant in the outcome.
		The Canadian team went back to Washington when King's Liberals won the election, settled for a much weaker agreement than the Bennett government had insisted upon, an agreement that is judged to have been more favourable to the US than to Canada.

		Canadians have reassembled a right of center Conservative party; it will be a more effective foil for the Liberals.
		Canadian elections run a minimum of thirty-five days; this limit reduces the official electioneering (although as is the case in other twenty-first century democracies, all parties campaign all the time), but also intensifies it.
		The most famous were the Pearson minority governments in 1963 and 1965 that ushered the existing social safety net and health care into the Canadian socio-political framework.
