This inquiry provides a review of a moment in Canadian political history and its statesmen that stands as an example of the practice that shaped Canadian nationhood. Sir John A. Macdonald and Louis Riel were the only “Fathers of Confederation” to meet in pitched battle. Their conflicts between 1869 and 1885 shaped two separate and core elements of the Canadian regime: English-French and East-West tensions. Through a lens of statesmanship, this inquiry analyzes the thoughts and actions of these two men.

Particular controversy was generated by Prime Minister Stephen Harper‟s assertion that only the political party with the most seats in the House of Commons has the right to form a government and that it is illegitimate for the opposition parties to form a coalition with a legislative majority. Peter Russell terms these contentions “Harper‟s New Rules”, and is one of a large group of scholars who deride the rules as being undemocratic and in violation of the traditional practice of parliamentary democracy and responsible government (which holds that the House of Commons is the final arbiter on the viability of potential governments).

  • Upper Legislative Houses in North Atlantic Small Powers 1800–Present Edited by Nikolaj Bijleveld, Colin Grittner, David E
    Reforming Senates This new study of senates in small powers across the North Atlantic shows that the establishment and the reform of these upper legislative houses have followed remarkably parallel trajectories. Senate reforms emerged in the wake of deep political crises within the North Atlantic world and were influenced by the comparatively weak positions of small powers. Reformers responded to crises and constantly looked beyond borders and oceans for inspiration to keep their senates relevant. Nikolaj Bijleveld, historian, is a staff member at the University of Groningen. Colin Grittner teaches Canadian history in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and has held postdoctoral fellowships at the University of British Columbia and the University of New Brunswick. David E. Smith is a former president of the Canadian Political Science Association and the author of a number of books on the Canadian Parliament and Canadian federalism.

  • The Election Issues in 1921 Managing the Economy and Being
    The Election Issues in 1921 Managing the economy and being responsible to Canadians in the post-war world emerge as dominant issues. The debate about free trade and the tariff played a significant role in this election. However, 1921 was not as focused on a single-issue as the 1911 election. Policy issues took a backseat to accusations of government mismanagement and leadership qualities. The Tariff The tariff was regarded in different ways in different parts of the country. For western farmers, the tariff meant low prices for their agricultural products and high cost for farm implements. For eastern business interests, the tariff was desirable because it protected Canadian industry and manufacturing. The debate over the tariff played its most important role before the election, acting as the catalyst for the creation of an independent western political movement in the Progressive Party. Throughout the campaign, the opinions of leaders and their electorate regarding the tariff were already deeply embedded. Government Mismanagement and Accountability At the end of World War I, the Canadian economy was starting to decline. The main problems were unemployment and a drop in manufacturing. Party leaders made the faltering economy an issue of government mismanagement. The Union government was blamed with the economic problems facing Canada. Issues such as government waste during the war, the public debt, increased taxes, and the management of public affairs were characterized as shortcomings of the Union government. Old issues, such as support of conscription, were also brought up again to characterize candidates. http://www.mapleleafweb.com/voter-almanac/1921-federal-election-canada#historical The Liberal Party The Liberals were faced with rebuilding their party after World War I.

  • A Note on Party Switchers
    A Note on Party Switchers by Professor Desmond Morton Recent high profile examples of Members of Parliament who have changed parties has raised a number of questions about the frequency of such behaviour as well as political and ethical questions. This article is based on a study, originally prepared for the Office of the House of Commons Ethics Commission in August 2005. It is reproduced by permission of the author and the Office of the Ethics Commissioner. he institution of political parties, with their CCF and Reform-Canadian Alliance have had more unifying discipline, makes possible Canada’s switchers over the period studied (1921-2005) than the Tversion of parliamentary government.
