	Unnatural Disaster: How Politics Destroyed Canada's Atlantic Groundfisheries
		Frustration at the apparent bias prompted the attachment to the report of a preface in the form of a letter stating that "environmental changes cannot be seen as the principal cause of the collapse of the Northern cod, and certainly should not be used to overshadow the central fact of over-fishing" (FRCC 1996a).
		Canada's Fisheries Act grants the federal fisheries minister absolute discretion over the issuing of fishing licences and empowers his agents to prohibit fishing in designated areas.
		Freeing fisheries from the political arena and placing responsibility for them with those who have a long-term interest in their success will ensure that the groundfish tragedy will not be repeated.

		Regardless, the existence of political parties in Canada gives Canadian citizens "a voice" in politics and allows them to feel that they can influence the way their country is run.
		Liberalism in Canada has historically been based on two issues: the promise to improve economic and social standards and the promise to heighten the respect and acknowledgement of Canadians.
		This was the beginning of the rise of the Socialist movement in Canada, and it was also the beginning of a host of bitter disagreements as well as incessant public condemnation of political adversaries.

	Urban Hermit: Politics - Canada
		In political terms, this might be to play right into Paul Martin's hands, but in terms of principle it is hardly defensible to make up one's mind based on the incomplete testimony of a single witness.
		At the risk of offending one of Canada's most sensitive political constituencies (though they have plenty of company), commentary on this scandal seems to have conflated one particular, and particularly ill-managed, government program with the old-fashioned, machine-style politics that seems to be politics-as-usual in Quebec.
		The impromptu encounter with reporters, whether in a scrum or elsewhere, is one of the endearingly amateurish elements of Canadian politics; at times, however, it may also be an important informal way of holding government "responsible," and thus an key part of our democracy (insofar as we may be said to have one).

	Vive le Canada - Religion and Politics in Canada
		But don’t pretend for a second that “religion” is not a dynamic part of the most important political decision made from hour to hour in the U.S.A. All of which forces us to face the historic fact that in many societies the dominant religious belief has significantly helped to shape political lilfe and institutions.
		The political Right, in contrast, tells religious believers that it shares their religious, moral, and spiritual concerns and will back those concerns if it gets power and becomes the State.
		To some in Canada (the Liberal leadership, the NDP, and others) same-sex marriage is not a religious question but a question of social equality.
