Publication Date: 2004-02-28
Elections assesses the history and development of five building blocks of the Canadian electoral regime: the franchise, electoral districts, voter registration, election machinery, and plurality voting. Arguing that on balance the Canadian electoral system is truly democratic, John Courtney demonstrates its vast improvements over the years. Courtney also examines why certain electoral institutions have been amenable to change and others have not.
