		Elections are generally held in either the fall or spring.

		The 38th general election was called in May 2004 by Prime Minister Paul Martin, a former Finance Minister who was elected leader of the ruling Liberal Party in November 2003 and who has been in office since December 2003, when Jean Chrétien stepped down after ten years as head of government.
		Although both the government and the National Assembly of Quebec rejected the agreements under which the Canada Act was passed and denounced the political legitimacy of the Constitution Act, 1982, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that the province was legally bound by the Act.
		Between 1962 and 1980, eight federal elections were held in Canada, five of which (1962, 1963, 1965, 1972 and 1979) resulted in minority governments, as no party won an absolute majority of seats in the House of Commons.

	Union Nationale - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Because the Union Nationale was launched only two weeks before the election, the ALN and Conservatives ran separately in the 1935 Quebec election but did not compete against each other.
		The Union Nationale was strongly aligned with the clergy in the province, and dominated Quebec politics during the Duplessis years using repressive measures such as the Padlock Law to suppress opposition and particularly the trade unions.
		Following his failure to win election to the National Assembly, he resigned as leader, and returned to federal Parliament as a PC MP by winning a federal by-election that was called as a result of his resignation.

		A Prime Minister may lose his or her seat in an election, but can remain in office as long as the party has sufficient support in the House of Commons to be able to govern, though again, he or she must, by custom, win a seat very promptly.
		In the general election of December 6, 1921, 4 women ran as candidates and only one was elected: Miss Agnes Campbell MacPhail became the first woman to sit in the House of Commons; she was elected as a Progressive.
		Until 1997, the minimum election period was 47 days, largely because of the requirement for a door-to-door enumeration to be conducted during the campaign.

		With 36 seats in what appears to be an uncomfortably close election, B.C. may well determine whether Canada elects a majority or minority government; whether it is formed by Paul Martin's Liberals or Stephen Harper's Conservatives; and whether Jack Layton's New Democrats have sufficient seats to affect the balance of power.
		While it is likely that the New Democrats will increase their share of the popular vote from the previous three elections (from the mid-teens to the mid-twenties), much depends on the performance of Jack Layton, their new and untested leader.
		When the Alliance popular vote from the last general election is added to that of their newly-betrothed, the Progressive Conservatives, the total comfortably exceeds half of the ballots counted.

		NDP has surprisingly surged in the Atlantic since the 1997 election, and succeed in a couple of ridings since, the party is strong in NS, especially in Halifax, one of the few cities that's not entirely devoted electorally to the Liberals.
		In the 1997 election, people in the Atlantic snapped, and the old political order was shattered as the NDP surged across the region, aided by the collapse of the Fishing and Coal industries and high unemployment.
		The general theory seems to be that a "united right" party would win all the votes won by the CA and PC parties in the last election plus some LPC votes as well.
