Did you know that the current leader of the New Democratic Party used to be a Liberal? Thomas Mulcair became the leader of the New Democratic Party after the death of Jack Layton. The New Democratic Party (NDP) is one of the major federal political parties in Canada. The NDP was formed in 1961 as the result of the merger of two different parties. There are numerous reasons why the people of Canada should vote for the NDP. Citizens of Canada should vote for the New Democratic Party because if elected, they promise to improve the environmental situation, provide better health care for Canadians, and improve the economy in Canada.

From the years of 1945-2000, Canada changed and developed as a country. These changes had both negative and positive effects, and were quite controversial. With a global crisis at hand, Canada found itself involved in international conflicts like they’ve never experienced before. Meanwhile, Canada was also dogged with internal issues, which were both political and economic, as it changed society. Canada was faced with problems of immigration, multiculturalism, Quebec separatism, as well as regionalism. This made Canada’s society change drastically. With Canada’s changes came the development of Canada’s national identity. Canadians began to view their country differently, and Canada’s identity took ahold of a new meaning.

The Four Political Parties of Canada       In a country as vast and as culturally diverse as Canada, many different political opinions can be found stretched across the country. From the affluent neighbourhoods of West Vancouver to the small fishing towns located on the east coast of Newfoundland, political opinions and affiliations range from the left wing to the right wing. To represent these varying political views, Canada has four official national political parties to choose from: the Liberals (who are currently in power), the Progressive Conservatives, the New Democrats, and the Reform Party. What is particularly interesting is that none of the latter three parties compose Her Majesty's Official Opposition in the House

In regard to the reading Ideological Perspectives on Canada by Patricia Marchak we discuss three ideologies such as the dominant ideology, counter ideology, and ideology in basic terms. Exploring the various aspects which these ideologies impact individuals and society an importance arises which explains why these beliefs are important to all. With ideology being of great importance we should study how it impacts children, large populations, and social norms.

When doing the Canadian Political Parties Worksheet, I saw that the Liberals had some very good points. While the Progressive Conservative Party wanted to decrease spending on health care and make it the provincial government’s responsibility, while the Liberals want to make it more accessible for people. They also want to make vaccinations mandatory for preventable diseases. The Liberals want to put a cap on university tuition and have post secondary education in their control while the Preservative Conservatives think it should be tied to inflation. The Liberals want to make the use of drones accessible by permits to speed up processes while other parties such as the NDP and Green party say no. The liberals want to bring a new, faster idea by agreeing with the Keystone Pipeline project which will be a trade asset and help bring a stronger bond with our neighbor, USA. The Liberals have also made equality an important factor. They were the party in power that allowed same-sex marriage. The Liberal government has allowed Syrian refugees into the country to get away from the wars, happening in their

In a country abundant with natural resources, a bright and competent population, and a kind, revered reputation, the shared thoughts of a well educated and astute leader and one’s cabinet sharing the same characteristics is critical. Our country is based on an multicultural population with differing views and ways of life, considering the the priceless value of the the Canada’s assets, it is imperative that it is handled in the best way possible, and, as time goes on, the ones involved in the control of our country will become more apt, leading to better control of our issues over time. European, Asian, African: all with varying religions, perspectives, ways of being, and all have important roles in our diverse, hard-working country. Ergo, the sharing of thoughts of views when thinking for Canada is imperative. For example, when France put in place a ban on all face/head coverings,

“Old Habits Die Hard: “New” Ontario and the “Old” Laurentian Consensus”, tells a similar story from a different perspective. Starting off, Alberta, rather than Ontario, is listed as the country’s agenda setter (Old Habits 2013). There are a few factors contributing to this switch; first off, free trade agreements made Canadian provinces much less reliant on each other, which negatively affected the power Ontario previously held. This power then shifted with the near simultaneous shrinking of the manufacturing industry in Ontario and growth of the economy in the west. However, this change is not altogether negative; other provinces have now had a chance to find their strengths. Similarly, it is now Ontario’s opportunity to find its place in this new structure. Unfortunately, Ontario’s has been fairly quiet in previous conversations about federal policy has a negative effect, both on a provincial and national level; provincially, the Ontarian voice is now considered with less validity than other provinces. At the same time, there is a national effect in that the outcome of the conversation has potentially been altered by the lack of

In this essay, I will be discussing policies enacted by Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government and explaining how they relate to the political compass. In the first paragraph, I will explain the difference between libertarian and authoritarian policies. In the second paragraph, I will discuss the Liberal government’s proposal to amend the Canadian Human Rights Act to add gender expression to the list of prohibited grounds of discrimination, and illustrate why that constitute a libertarian policy. In the third paragraph, I will discuss the liberal proposal amending the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act and why that constitute an authoritarian policy. Afterward, in the fourth paragraph, I will explain the difference between the left-wing and the right-wing policies. In the fifth paragraph, I will discuss the Canadian Liberal government decision on the rise of the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) payouts and why that constitute a left-wing policy. Then in the sixth paragraph, I will discuss the Liberal’s Canada-EU free trade agreement and why that constitute a right-wing policy.

It is considered that in the Canada two parties are at the peak point such as conservative and the other one is liberal. But here, I describe the conservative party. Because it very famous party in Canadian polities. The present time the leader of this party is Andrew Scheer. This party was eastabilished in the year of 2003 by Canadian government. This party always represent the good thoughts in the front of canadian people for telling the people about reality and truthness. It also helps the people by making the laws with giving equal rights to everyone. The leader of this party take the side of Canadian dweller for low taxes. Because as we know that everyone can’t give high tax to

The course taught me how Canada’s political and social economic framework experienced a drastic transformation when it adopted values of neo-liberalism. The reflective entries helped me understand the results of neo-liberalism such as devolution, austerity policies, globalization, lack of universality and deregulation at the federal and provincial levels. As a result, I was able to critically examine issues such as lack of affordable housing and missing and murdered Aboriginal women in Canada and firsthand see the detrimental role neo-liberalism on these social problems.

Many voters don't care about politics as much as they use too. This can occur for number of

Canadian Political Approach Canada as a country and society is characterized by a lot of diversity across region, ethnicity, language, and religion, which later become politicized. As mentioned, cleavages become part of the political system environment and a consulting in the day-to-day running of political activities. Canada is not a perfect country, but it is widely and rightly seen as a model for how people with different cultures, languages, ethnicities, spiritual beliefs and identities can live together peacefully. Deeply ingrained and often unconscious empirical beliefs about the way things are, and normative beliefs about the way things should be, influence our views about how best to study politics and to solve real-world problems.

A federal election occurs every five years in Canada. In fact, this year the election will be taking place on Monday October 19th 2015. A federal election is held to determine the new prime minister of our country. Currently the prime minister of Canada is Stephen Harper. However, his five years are up, therefore he must compete with other candidates if he wants to keep his position. There are six parties in this election, but the most prominent ones are Conservatives which are represented by Stephen Harper, Liberals which are represented by Justin Trudeau and Tom Mulcair who is representing NDP. Each party is also identified with a specific colour. For example, the Conservatives are identified as the colour blue because it is a colour associated
