    CANADA Canada Institute INSTITUTE JANUARY 2006 Occasional Paper Series The Foreign and THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC held a referendum on separation from Canada on October 30, 1995. It was not the first time this issue had been Defense Policies of brought before the provincial electorate, but this time the proposal was only narrowly defeated. For the first time, a majority of francophones voted for an Independent separation. The separatists lost because anglophones and speakers of other lan- guages voted overwhelmingly against separation, and their votes were just Quebec barely sufficient to tip the balance. The result strengthened the separatists and endowed them with a sense of momentum—while English-speaking DWIGHT N. MASON Canadians were left with pessimism about the future of the country. The two sides’ conflicting visions of Canada seemed impossible to reconcile. The referendum results raised the real possibility that Quebec might soon become independent, either through agreement with Canada or unilaterally. This outcome now seems unlikely, but the issue is not going to disappear. Ten years later, there remains a hard core of separatists. Their position has been strengthened, for the moment at least, by the growing number of scandals, prin- cipally the “sponsorship” scandal, engulfing the Liberal Party of Canada. The essence of the sponsorship scandal is the allegation that persons close to the Liberal government of former Prime Minister Jean Chrétien (and perhaps to the current Paul Martin government) used federal funds for partisan purposes in Quebec, among them to weaken support for separatism in the province. These activities allegedly included bribery and kickbacks.

  • Exploring the Effect of the Independence Referendum Process on Political Attitudes Towards Immigration in Sub-State Nationalist Regions
    Diversity under Stress: Exploring the effect of the independence referendum process on political attitudes towards immigration in sub-state nationalist regions by © Maggie Catherine Peyton, B.A A Thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Political Science Memorial University of Newfoundland January 2017 St. John’s Newfoundland and Labrador Canada Abstract This thesis examines the link between independence referenda and minority nationalist discourses on immigration in Quebec, Catalonia, and Scotland. I demonstrate that the referendum period acts as lock-in mechanism that secures minority nationalist discourses towards immigration. Importantly, political frames used throughout the referenda play a role in the development of either an accepting or a sceptical narrative toward immigration. Through process tracing and discourse analysis, I note the development of a skeptical narrative toward immigration in Quebec, whereas I observe a more accepting or accommodating rhetoric in the Catalan and Scottish cases. The latter two cases extend beyond civic and ethnic studies of nationalism into an analysis of political mobilization by the sub-state nationalist parties throughout the referendum period. ii Acknowledgments There are numerous people I would like to acknowledge with the completion of this thesis. They have offered important support and guidance throughout the duration of this project. Firstly, I would like to thank my supervisor Karlo Basta for encouraging me to think beyond my previous academic capacities and pushing me to create and complete a project I thought might never come to full fruition. This project would not have been the same without his intellectual guidance and patience as I found my academic voice.

  • Small Worlds and Local Strongholds in Canadian Federal Politics: Deviations from General Patterns of Party Support in the 2000 Election
    Small Worlds and Local Strongholds in Canadian Federal Politics: Deviations from General Patterns of Party Support in the 2000 Election Munroe Eagles (SUNY – Buffalo) [email protected] and R.K. Carty (UBC) [email protected] Abstract It is striking that in all parties some candidates manage to enjoy local support that is considerably greater than their party's average performance in similar electoral districts. In this paper we identify who these candidates were in 2000 and explore the basis of their success. We begin by developing an ecological model that incorporates a range of socio- demographic, economic, political, and geographic variables to estimate the general pattern of support for each party. The ten most highly positive residuals (the difference between the actual level of party support and that predicted by the model) identify candidates and ridings which did significantly better than they should have. The magnitude of these deviations, and the variety of plausible explanations for them, draw attention to the complexity of Canadian election campaigns, and remind us of the need to incorporate influences from different geographic scales (including the local) if we are to fully understand electoral processes and outcomes. Paper prepared for the annual meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, May 30 – June 1st, 2003. Introduction Conventional accounts of federal elections and campaigns in Canada emphasize the importance of national factors in the determination of election outcomes. National party offices develop elaborate marketing schemes and distribute these to their candidates, infusing a national message in all corners of the country (Bell and Fletcher, 1991).
