	washingtonpost.com: Canada's Ruling Party Loses Its Majority in Elections
		But the Conservative Party, led by Stephen Harper, which expected a boost at the polls because of anger over a government financial scandal, was unable to gain as many seats as it hoped.
		Harper, who just weeks ago had projected his party would win a majority government, admitted Monday night he was disappointed in the results but congratulated the party on depriving the Liberals of a majority.
		As leaders of the major parties ended five weeks of campaigning, they were shown on television casting votes in their home precincts.

		Alberta needs a government courageous enough to move ahead while defending the rights and priveleges of the past.
		He and his party have committed acts against the people of this province who are economically disadvantaged or mentally challenged since they came to power.
		I think that it's time for a change in Alberta and that we need a leader who is willing to look to the future and not base their campaign on what they did only as a campaign scam.

	The Dominion: How the Liberal Party Works (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Though other parties have not recently experienced the intense and public squabbles over the control of riding associations, their leadership is largely decided by who can sign up the largest number of new members.
		Because of the Party's effective legal status as a private club, however, he was unsuccessful (though Eggleton was later shuffled out of Cabinet after it was shown that he had given his ex-girlfriend a $36,000 military contract).
		Given all of the inward turns the power structure of the Liberal Party has taken, and accepting the Party does not currently appear to be at risk of losing its majority, it is not clear how Canadians can meaningfully participate in the governing of their country.

	Freedom Party International - Consent 21 - August 1994
		Legislators who dissent from the party line and vote according to their conscience risk withdrawal of their party's support in future elections.
		Since it is impossible for any single elected member to represent the manifold opinions and interests of his constituents, the problem can only be resolved by adopting an electoral system which provides the voters with more than one representative.
		This allows the party in power to produce three-member constituencies where they are strong and larger ones where they are weak.

		Separation Party of Alberta -To ensure the future of Alberta for Albertans by becoming an independent nation separate from Canada.
		Let me say that although the Separation Party of Alberta and the Federal Liberal Candidate are mentioned in the plot, this is not a political play and anyone frustrated with Canadian politics should not be afraid to attend.
		This is why eyes rolled in Alberta when Martin declared, in his customary meaningless and overblown way, that he'd consider appointing elected senators, would end the democratic deficit, and will have failed if he doesn't solve western alienation.

		Point being, Alberta is in an economic boom, which probably makes it easier for regular folk to turn a blind eye to the crumbling social system and leeeeaaaan ever more rightward.
		If a candidate is told "we don't want you to represent our community", but gets appointed to government anyway because his party had a certain percentage of the vote - that doesn't strike me as a better plan at all.
		As for fear of dangerously radical parties winning seats under PR, the solution is to set a reasonable lower limit of the popular vote that parties would have to reach before gaining seats.

		But such a new dynasty was not simply an existing opposition party, but a brand-new party that was set up from scratch and that took Albertans by storm.
		They sing the praises of the party's current ineffectual leader, Kevin Taft, and even reject the veracity of the most recent poll that pegs the provincial Liberals at 17% at best (a drop of almost 50% since the last election in 2004).
		It was one of those times when a party totally fails to listen to the average man or woman in the street and takes matters into its own hands.

		The following essay is adapted from Freedom Party's official Presentation to the Reform Party of Canada's Aboriginal Affairs Task Force, delivered by the author on February 26, 1995.
		As a representative of a political party whose principles do not permit our advocacy of the establishment of "special status" for any individuals or groups, what I have to say on this subject has already been somewhat predetermined for me.
		Just as Canadians feel that their governments are no longer representing their true feelings and values, Aboriginal peoples are faced with a leadership that does not seem to reflect their true feelings or values either.

	Why I left the Libertarian Party and joined the Republicans
		The fundamental problem is that proportional representation, under the rubric of "representative democracy," has the perverse effect of removing true democratic choice from the electorate in the matter of whom it selects to represent it.
		Another Libertarian was seeking the party’s nomination, but it was felt that I would be a better representative of the party, particularly in the TV debates which I was assured were almost certain to include the eventual Libertarian candidate.
		For a party putatively in favor of opening up the political process and being dedicated to principle (as in "the party of principle") this was an astonishing political gaffe.

		Fourth, Farmer governance, The Representative Party feels they, since it has been nearly 15 years since Ontario passed “the Farmer Registration Program” and given the mood by farmer, should look internally at their organizations to make them more accountable and effective.
		Fifth, Governmental support, The Representative Party believes in a free enterprise market-driven farm economy, however we also believe it should be fair, which it is not today given the financial support we see being given to farmers in Quebec and the United States.
		The Representative Party of Ontario supports the citizen’s choice, change and chance for a better Ontario while the governing party’s government, whether it be the incompetent, inept and ignorant Liberals, Progressive Conservatives or New Democrats, support the status-quo each and every time.
