	New Democratic Party - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		In 1989, Broadbent stepped down after 15 years as federal leader of the NDP, although he has recently returned from retirement, and won election to Parliament in the riding of Ottawa Centre in the 2004 election.
		Over three election cycles, under the leadership of Audrey McLaughlin (1989-1995) — the first woman to be leader of a national political party in Parliament — in the first, and Alexa McDonough (1995-2003) over the next two, the party underwent a marked decline in popularity, a modest resurgence, and a slight further decline.
		Layton, a former Toronto city councillor, was elected at the party's leadership election in Toronto on January 25, 2003, defeating his nearest rival, longtime MP Bill Blaikie, on the first ballot with 53.5% of the vote.

		The Alberta Queen's Bench issued an injunction lifting the third party spending limits pending a full hearing, and the injunction was upheld by the Alberta Court of Appeal.

		The unwillingness to recognize Alberta's legitimate Senators is apparent despite several facts.
		The election and subsequent appointment of Waters to the Senate did make it obvious that some form of Senate reform could be made without reforming the Constitution.
		One could argue that this was yet another election promise that would not come to fruition, but that wasn't the only example of Martin having little problem making piecemeal changes to the Constitution.

	The Epoch Times \| Conservatives Introduce Senate Reform, Fixed Election Dates
		The Conservatives had campaigned during the last election on a promise to make elections timing more fair—referring to the ability of governments to set election dates to their own political advantage — and to reform a Senate which many believe to be ineffective and obsolete.
		In 2000 for example, Jean Chrétien came under fire for calling a snap election well before his mandate was through, capitalizing on the disarray of the newly-formed Canadian Alliance Party, which was then the official opposition.
		NDP leader Jack Layton has said the bill to fix election dates doesn't go far enough to reform Canada's electoral system, and called for an end to the current 'first past the post' system, in which only the party with the most votes wins representation in a riding.
