2004 Canadian federal election

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is an old revision of this page, as edited by P.T. Aufrette (talk | contribs) at 03:52, 14 March 2004. The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

A Canadian federal election, also known as a general election, will most likely be held in early 2004. The exact date is up to the Prime Minister; issues such as the inquiry into the sponsorship scandal may delay the call.

Canadian voters will elect a new House of Commons (the lower house of Parliament). If the currently governing Liberal Party of Canada wins neither a majority nor a plurality, the prime minister may resign and the Governor General would then invite the leader of a different party to form a new government. The Prime Minister may also continue governing as a minority government or seek an alliance with another party.

All the major national parties will run under different leaders in this next election than the last, held in 2000. This election will also mark the debut of the new Conservative Party of Canada, which will choose a new leader in March.

Until the sponsorship scandal, most pundits were predicting that new Prime Minister Paul Martin would lead the Liberals to a fourth majority government, possibly setting a record for number of seats won. However, polls released immediately after it broke out showed Liberal support down as much as 10% nationwide, with greater declines in its heartland of Quebec and Ontario.

Opposition parties

In the final months of 2003, the New Democrats, the Progressive Conservatives and the Canadian Alliance were running a distant second, third and fourth, respectively, in public opinion polls.

Many pundits predicted that the combination of the popular and fiscally conservative Martin, along with continued vote-splitting on the right, could lead to the almost total annihilation of the Progressive Conservatives and Canadian Alliance. This fear has prompted those two parties to form a united Conservative Party of Canada, which was approved by the Canadian Alliance on December 5, 2003 and by the Progressive Conservatives on December 6, 2003.

The new Conservative Party has pulled ahead of the NDP in the most recent polls, although its support has been well below the combined support that the Progressive Conservatives and the Alliance had as separate parties.

Prior to the announcement of the union of the right-of-centre parties, some were predicting an NDP official opposition. A new leader (Jack Layton) and clear social democratic policies may allow the NDP to make breakthroughs in all regions of the country.

The Bloc Québécois (BQ) continued to slide in the polls in 2003 after the election of the strongly federalist Quebec Liberal Party under Jean Charest and during the long run-up to Paul Martin becoming leader of the federal Liberals. Support for sovereignty also continued to slide. However the Charest government rapidly became quite unpopular, and this, combined with the federal sponsorship scandal, led to a strong resurgence of the BQ, which moved well ahead of the federal Liberals in the polls in February 2004.

2004 federal representation

Due to the 2001 census, Canada's 301 electoral districts will increase to 308. Boundary changes will take effect across the country to even out population redistribution, and seven new districts will be formed. Each province has a minimum amount of seats, and therefore it is rare for a province to lose seats in a redistribution. These changes still need to be passed by the House of Commons (as of December 12, 2003); they are expected to take effect in April 2004.
