	Ontario Election 1999 EV Campaign Report (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Electoral district specific videos were distributed to designated areas in each electoral district that the voting history analyses suggested were the most volatile or where the EV endorsed candidate might have the most difficulty.
		A further electoral district selection process that took into account ease of campaigning, whether or not the incumbent was a cabinet minister, availability of a local volunteer base, and budget constraints.
		Even in electoral districts where the PC candidates retained their seats, the plurality by which they won was greatly reduced since the last election, suggesting that if EV had had the budget to drop videos in every household the PC candidates would have likely lost.

	Electoral College - GovTeen Forums
		Consider this: without the electoral college, we could concievably have a president decided by fewer than 30 cities, which is almost as bad as if not worse than having an election decided by a couple of states.
		We need to separate electors out to districts instead of states, with the states represented by two Senatorial electors (or "at-large" electors) and each district represented by their House seat.
		Since House districts are drawn up by State Legislatures the districts tend to be either conservatively or liberally biased, depending on which party controls the legislature.

	Women in Parliament (PRB 05-62E) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Reform of the electoral system appears to be garnering increased attention in Canada for a variety of reasons, including pressure to correct the ongoing gender imbalance in elected positions.
		While the major impetus for reviewing the electoral systems in these provinces has been to ensure that a party’s representation in the legislature more closely reflects the percentage of votes it receives, a secondary goal in some provinces has been to redress the gender imbalance in the legislature.
		Based on extensive consultation on electoral reform, it concluded that “increased representation of women is an important reason for reforming Canada’s first-past-the-post voting system,”(24) and recommended that Canada adopt a mixed member proportional electoral system.
