	How Preston Manning Missed the Wave (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Canada's single-member district-plurality electoral system strongly rewards small parties (like Reform and the Bloc Québécois) that concentrate their votes in a single region, while punishing parties that spread their votes broadly across the country, as the Conservatives did in 1993.
		At the provincial level, corruption and senescence caused the British Columbia Social Credit Party to collapse, leaving a void on the right into which Reform could have moved.
		By refusing to enter provincial politics, Reform squandered an incredible opportunity to build a serious power base, create a sense of political momentum and allow its partisans to have undivided party loyalties at the federal and provincial levels.

		As shown by the electoral data in Table 2, the decline in the LPP vote in the BC Crowsnest Pass between 1945 and 1953 almost exactly parallelled the decline in the Alberta Pass (where there was no sympathetic provincial representative).
		We partially attribute this to the fact that in provincial politics the LPP in the BC Crowsnest continued to be a relevant force, successfully working for the reelection of Thomas Uphill of the Fernie and District Labour Party.
		In contrast, in provincial politics in the Alberta Crowsnest the LPP abandoned a labour unity approach in the provincial election of 1948 and from that point on was a marginal political force.

		Khan is running from the Calgary East riding (election district), in the province of Alberta, the same riding that has an Indo-Canadian incumbent, Deepak Obhrai of the Conservative Party.
		The North American Free Trade Agreement that former U.S. President Bill Clinton signed onto, is regarded by many in Canada as unfair to their country.
		Khan says he is running, "Because I feel like the other parties don't represent our values and it is important to have multiple parties, and we want to bring these issues to the forefront."
