	Politics of Canada (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The political system under which Canada operates, known as the Westminster system, was enshrined by the British Parliament in the Constitution Act of 1867 (also known as the British North America Act), but the federal model and division of powers were devised by Canadian politicians.
		Canadian politicians were unable to obtain consensus on a process for amending the constitution until 1982.
		Because the Canadian Conservative party was new, estimates were attempted based on the votes for the old Progressive Conservative Party of Canada and the Canadian Alliance party as the Conservative Party of Canada was a merger of the two parties.

		The political system under which Canada operates was first set forth by the Constitution Act 1867 (formerly called the British North America Act 1867), a statute of the British Parliament and is modeled on the Westminster System.
		But, constitutionally, any adult Canadian is eligible for the jobs, and prime ministers have held office after being elected leader but before taking a seat in the Commons (John Turner, for example), or after being defeated in their constituencies.
		The Canadian Alliance, which did well in western Canada in the 2000 election, but was unable to make significant inroads in the East, merged with the Progressive Conservative Party to form the Conservative Party of Canada in late 2003.

	J' Accuse
		According to the Ontario letter-writer, the entire affair, that is, such scandals, began with Pierre Elliot Trudeau, a native son of Quebec and later Canada's 15th prime minister.
		However, the voting pattern of Canadians over the past few decades is such that the Liberals, heavily supported in Quebec and Ontario, and to a slightly lesser extent in Atlantic Canada, carry a federal election and those on The Prairies and BC end up holding the dirty end of the stick.
		Canadians must consider, though, that Martin was finance minister and a member of the treasury board [the government overseer of all federal government expenditures] in the Chretien government and in all probability would have been aware of the law-breaking goings-on at the time.

	Canadian Commentary: Making Political Financing Truly Democratic
		In fact, most Canadians are fortunate if they can afford to donate $100 to their political party of choice.
		For instance, the political process would be enriched if parties could present their viewpoints on active issues directly to voters through advertising in the periods between elections, rather than just once every four years.
		The result would be a truly democratic political funding system, and one that would force parties to consider their popularity all of the time, rather than just in the run-up to elections.

	Canadian Political Contribution Tax Credit
		The political purpose delivers benefit to party supporters, or their purpose is intentionally engaging in political activity that protests a policy or law, or the lack of a policy or a law.
		Political purposes and activities are not defined in the Income Tax Act; however, it is well established in the law that an organization whose purpose is the attainment of a political object is not organized for a charitable purpose.
		The political economy we have now depends upon the ability of a tiny minority of the most wealthy persons to be able to use their money to influence the political process.

	Canadian Studies: A Guide to the Sources
		The first undergraduate Canadian Studies programme was established at Mount Allison University in 1969 with an endowment from Edgar and Dorothy Davidson of Montreal; the first director was George F.G. Stanley (1907-2002), a distinguished historian and author, and designer of the country's maple leaf flag.
		Anita Cannon's Canadian Government Information on the Internet is a comprehensive gateway to federal, provincial, territorial and municipal government Web sites, while Iza Laponce's Canadian Politics on the Internet and Bibliography of Canadian Politics and Society provide invaluable access to a wide spectrum of electronic and print sources in the field.
		However, these forces are also serving to keep Canadian Studies a vibrant discipline, both at home and abroad, and are providing Canadian writers, artists, academics, journalists, and foreign observers with abundant opportunities for discourse on the evolving nature of this still enigmatic northern land.
