	Liberal Party of Canada - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		The Liberal Party was reduced from a majority to a minority government due, in part, to a Chrétien-era scandal in which advertising agencies supporting the Liberal Party received grossly inflated commissions for their services.
		The period between Paul Martin's assumption of the leadership of the Liberal Party of Canada on November 14, 2003, and the 2004 Canadian election being called on May 23, 2004, saw a large amount of infighting within the party.
		When the Liberals formed a majority government after the 1993 election with Chrétien at the helm, party unity was assured by placing Martin, whom Chrétien had defeated for the party leadership in 1990, in the crucial role of Minister of Finance.

		The Liberal Party of Ontario is descended from the Reform Party of Robert Baldwin and William Lyon Mackenzie, who argued for responsible government in the 1830s and 1840s against the conservative patrician rule of the Family Compact.
		The Liberals continued to decline after losing power, and, for a time, were eclipsed by the United Farmers of Ontario (UFO) when the Liberals were unable to attract the growing farmers' protest movement to its ranks.
		The Ontario Liberal Association (particularly supporters of William Lyon Mackenzie King) demanded a leadership convention and one was finally held in May 1943 electing Harry Nixon.

	Reading Stephane Dion :: tyeebooks.ca
		The main difference between the two leaders and their war crimes, of course, is that Hezbollah's leadership and organization isn't political or elected (even though its populist), while Israels government aside from its current leader, is a political party that has been elected and this changes the way the two organizations should be dealt with.
		It's also despite the fact that the Liberals are still leaderless and that their campaign, according to the same poll, has failed to engage one in two voters and to produce a popular front-runner.
		But if the Liberals, based on the tepid public response to their leadership campaign, are not holding the Conservatives back, then it follows that the government is failing to build efficiently on its gains from the last election through its own actions or lack of them.

	Astrological notes on the 2004 Canadian Federal election
		His Liberal party is conscious of its role in serving the public, but that image has been tarnished by scandal, and requires a lot of complicated initiatives to maintain; nonetheless, the Liberals are clear on their goals and purpose.
		In the case of Gilles Duceppe's BQ leadership, which happened before Web archiving of news stories was a general practise, I have just guessed and used local astrological sunset (Sun conjunct Descendant), on the theory that these leadership conventions usually announce their decisions in the evening, at the end of a hard day of debate.
		The party on his leadership, however, has sympathy for the USA indicated by 916 America in Pisces; it is closely conjunct 2104 Toronto, so that aspect of their position may be especially important to Ontario voters.
