  • BYTE Seeks to Engage Young Voters in All Candidates Forum
    BYTE seeks to engage young voters in all-candidates forum Event date: October 7th, 5:30-7 Baked Café Free September 23, 2015 WHITEHORSE - For Immediate Release BYTE is seeking to engage young voters in the lead-up to the federal election with an all-candidates forum for youth. The event will take place on October 7th at 5:30pm at Baked Café and targets young voters and young prospective voters aged 18-35. All four Yukon federal candidates—Ryan Leef, Larry Bagnell, Melissa Atkinson, and Frank De Jong—have confirmed that they will attend the event, which will be moderated by BYTE’s Communications Coordinator Kara Johancsik “Young Yukoners are much less likely to vote than older generations,” says Johancsik. “Our goal with this forum is to put youth issues on the federal candidates’ agendas and to educate young people about federal party platforms with respect to issues that affect them.” The event is part of BYTE’s Yukon Youth Want campaign, a non-partisan social media campaign that asks young Yukoners to share youth issues with local politicians. BYTE has been collecting photographs of young people from across the territory holding up their own statement of what Yukon youth want and posting them to the BYTE Facebook page. “We often hear young people talk about housing, job security, student debt, access to education, and healthcare,” says Johancsik. “We plan to bring the issues expressed in the Yukon Youth Want campaign to the all-candidates forum.” The forum will start off with a few questions formulated by BYTE in light of the Yukon Youth Want campaign, and then audience members will get the chance to ask their own questions.

  • 'Turncoats, Opportunists, and Political Whores': Floor Crossers in Ontario
    “‘Turncoats, Opportunists, and Political Whores’: Floor Crossers in Ontario Political History” By Patrick DeRochie 2011-12 Intern Ontario Legislature Internship Programme (OLIP) 1303A Whitney Block Queen’s Park Toronto, Ontario M7A 1A2 Phone: 416-325-0040 [email protected] www.olipinterns.ca www.facebook.com/olipinterns www.twitter.com/olipinterns Paper presented at the 2012 Annual meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association Edmonton, Alberta Friday, June 15th, 2012. Draft: DO NOT CITE 2 Acknowledgements I would like to thank the following people for their support, advice and openness in helping me complete this research paper: Gilles Bisson Sean Conway Steve Gilchrist Henry Jacek Sylvia Jones Rosario Marchese Lynn Morrison Graham Murray David Ramsay Greg Sorbara Lise St-Denis David Warner Graham White 3 INTRODUCTION When the October 2011 Ontario general election saw Premier Dalton McGuinty’s Liberals win a “major minority”, there was speculation at Queen’s Park that a Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) from the Progressive Conservative (PC) Party or New Democratic Party (NDP) would be induced to cross the floor. The Liberals had captured fifty-three of 107 seats; the PCs and NDP, thirty-seven and seventeen, respectively. A Member of one of the opposition parties defecting to join the Liberals would have definitively changed the balance of power in the Legislature. Even with the Speaker coming from the Liberals’ ranks, a floor crossing would give the Liberals a de facto majority and sufficient seats to drive forward their legislative agenda without having to rely on at least one of the opposition parties. A January article in the Toronto Star revealed that the Liberals had quietly made overtures to at least four PC and NDP MPPs since the October election, 1 meaning that a floor crossing was a very real possibility.

  • Canadian Jurisprudence and Electoral Reform1
    1 Understanding Democracy as a Cause of Electoral Reform: Canadian Jurisprudence and Electoral Reform1 Richard S. Katz Dept. of Political Science The Johns Hopkins University Baltimore MD, USA This paper addresses the question of the sources of electoral reform that lie outside of the partisan political realm. In particular, it examines the case of electoral reforms that have been imposed, or that realistically might be imagined to be imposed, by the courts in Canada. The paper consists of three major sections. The first introduces the idea of judicial review as a source of electoral reform. The second lays out the major cases relevant to electoral reform that have been decided by the Canadian courts. The third attempts to impose some theoretical consistency on the Canadian jurisprudence in this field,2 and to suggest the possible consequences of adherence to this line of development. Introduction In an often cited article, Kenneth Benoit (2004: 363) presents a theory that “predicts that electoral laws will change when a coalition of parties exists such that each party in the coalition expects to gain more seats under an alternative electoral institution, and that also has sufficient power to effect this alternative through fiat given the rules for changing electoral laws.” In a similar vein, Josep Colomer (2005: 2) presents “a logical model and discussion of the choice of electoral systems in settings with different numbers of previously existing political parties.” These articles take clear positions on two long-standing and related debates. First (and most obviously the case with Colomer, but certainly implicit in Benoit) - and following a line dating at least to John Grumm’s 1958 article on the adoption of PR in Europe - they argue that party systems are best understood as a cause rather than a consequence of electoral systems.

  • Reforming Ottawa's Municipal Election Finances
    Reforming Ottawa’s municipal election finances A report to the City of Ottawa’s Corporate Services & Economic Development Committee And City Council By Councillor Alex Cullen (Bay Ward) City of Ottawa, 110 Laurier Ave. W., Ottawa K1P 1J1 (613) 580-2477; fax (613) 580-2517; e-mail: [email protected] April 28, 2005 Reforming Ottawa’s municipal election finances In the 2003 municipal election for the City of Ottawa’s 22 council seats (Mayor plus 21 ward councillors) a remarkable thing happened: every incumbent running for re-election succeeded. The incumbent mayor and 15 incumbent ward councillors running were all re-elected, despite competition from 60 other candidates, despite endorsements for certain challengers from the two major newspapers and sundry interest groups. The only new councillors elected were from 6 “open” seats where no incumbent was a contestant. A review of the 2003 municipal election in Ottawa indicates that there is an uneven playing field in municipal election campaigns, and the clear need for campaign financing reform. Analysis of the 2003 Municipal Election in Ottawa An analysis of the 2003 municipal election in Ottawa (see Analysis of 2003 Municipal Election, City of Ottawa1) shows that nearly $1 million was raised and spent in the 2003 municipal elections in Ottawa. It also reveals that the ability to raise and spend money to wage a campaign was a significant determinant in the success of candidates running for election. Money is important to promote the campaign of a candidate and his or her ideas. It pays for signs, advertisements and brochures to let the electorate know who is running for what and why.
