I live in Canada, but I'm not Canadian so can't vote... but if I did, I would prolly go for the liberals, or the greens...

I don't live in Canada, but I have a few cousin who live there. I don't know what means party in Canada, but before a rewiew, I vould provide my vote for green party. In my region (Europa) green party have good work, and have many follower, but also the other partys can have good works, maybe, a differences can be to small.

Party in Canada means a group of people who have candidates for elections.

you did not list my favourite party, which would be The Western Independence Party...

it makes good economical sense for the western provinces, manitoba and west of that, to form their own country.

you know...being that we have a ton of resources and few people. canadian "culture" doesn't really reflect western provinces anyway.

This post is about canadian political patries but i am american and i just found out when i went to vote today that america has like 13 different parties. I thought there was only 3. Next election i will have to research the other parties and see whats the difference and why they arent as popular.

Even tho im sure im not the only person like this i know a vote for one of them woudl be usless since they will never win but i would like to make sure i know how every canidate stands on the issues.

I can pretty much tell you now that why they aren't as popular is because they don't have money. I'm afraid elections in the US (like a bunch of other things) is a waste of money. The more money you have, the more votes you'll get. I even hear that the parties pay people to vote for them! Hope those are just rumors...

It is the same in many other places though since many other nations take the US as an example. Ballots in Turkey for example are nearly one and a half meters in length (5 feet for you guys ) but there are only 5-6 known parties... More interestingly however some parties form and take control while others fade out of existence all the time. The party in power today is only 3 years old I think! I don't see that happening in many other places, like I don't see the Republicans suddenly getting only 10% of the votes.

I voted NDP last election.
They're the least of all evils in Saskachewan.

If there is actually a part called The Western Independance Party, I oppose that thought. It's just like when Quebec wanted to separate from Canada. Most of the province voted that they must stay in Canada.
