An Introduction to Parliamentary Government in Canada, Seventh Edition
By Patrick Malcolmson,Richard Myers,Gerald Baier,Tom Bateman | Publisher: University of Toronto Press
About the book
Using a traditional historical-institutional approach, The Canadian Regime introduces students to the idea of the regime. The authors explain how the Canadian liberal democratic regime was founded on the fundamental principles of liberty, equality, and consent and discuss the ways in which Canada’s institutions have developed and operate in accordance with these principles. The authors also examine how the regime has at times failed to follow these principles, particularly with respect to Canada’s Indigenous peoples in Canada, and how reforms to Canada’s governing institutions challenge historical assumptions concerning parliamentary government and federalism. Now in its seventh edition, The Canadian Regime continues to provide the most accessible introduction to Canadian politics, making Canada’s unique government and systems clear to students. This edition is updated with the results of the 2019 federal election.
