The 2000 Canadian federal election was held on November 27, 2000, to elect 301 Members of Parliament to the House of Commons of Canada.
The election was regarded as a great success by Prime Minister Jean Chrétien and the Liberal Party, but a failure for every other party.
On election night, controversy arose when a CBC producer's gratuitously sexist comment about Stockwell Day's daughter-in-law, Juliana Thiessen Day, was accidentally broadcast on the Canadian networks' pooled election feed from Day's riding.

 The Amazing Proportional Representation Simulator
The riding boundaries used in this simulation were in effect for the Canadian federal election of 2000 and the Ontario provincial election of 2003, and were supplanted by the boundary reallocation of 2004.
These Ontario results from the 2000 Canadian federal election are pretty close to a 'worst case' scenario, in terms of distortion of the will of the voters.
However, the Canadian Alliance has suddenly achieved an eastern breakthrough with 25 seats in Ontario, and the Progressive Conservatives and NDP are respectable again with 16 seats and 9 seats respectively in the province.

It was also a cynical strategy that assumed that the Canadian public (as opposed to the media) would pillory candidates who dared to give sincere, well-reasoned arguments as to why there is room for some change on the abortion and other social matters.
A house divided, as the Alliance clearly was during this election, is inevitably a house that collapses.
Canadians must insist that the church act on this contradiction that has resulted in Canadian "Catholic" political leaders imposing a deadly anti-life, anti-family agenda on Canada and other parts of the world, while still calling themselves "Catholic", and still allowed to receive Catholic sacraments.

 Environment Voters 2000 Federal Election Campaign Report
For reasons beyond the control of EV, its 2000 federal election campaign was, in fact, a token affair and not the campaign that EV would have run had adequate time and financial resources been available.
When the election was called, EV simply lacked the resources to campaign as effectively as would be necessary to fully hold the Liberal's accountable for their disastrous environmental policies.
To defeat a candidate, as EV had done in the 1999 Ontario election, a campaign must be research driven, based on the issues that undecided voters are actually concerned about as determined from quality polling, and highly targeted in the "swing" areas of a marginal electoral district.

 ISUMA : Unsteady State: The 1997 Canadian Federal Election   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
There is no evidence in the Canadian election survey of voters punishing the Liberals for their shift to the right (as exemplified by cuts to social programs in order to eliminate the deficit).
Perhaps the tight focus on the 1997 election was achieved at some cost to a fuller and more probing examination of the historical context for the election.
It’s not clear enough, for instance, whether this election survey and the analyzes that form the core arguments of this book represent a continuation and confirmation of the claims of previous studies, or a significant departure therefrom.
