Through our readings and discussions in the class, we have been
introduced to some recent scholarship on parties, elections and voter
behaviour in Canada. As you may have noted, there is much scope
for further study in the field. Choose two questions or issues
introduced in the class that you would like to pursue in further
studies of your own and explain their importance (please try to avoid
repeating issues considered in another question on this exam).
