In the 1984 election, however, Brian Mulroney led the Progressive Conservatives to the largest electoral landslide in Canadian history, winning a majority of the seats in every province. Especially important was the Conservative breakthrough in Quebec, traditionally a bastion of Liberal support.
Mulroney was re-elected in 1988, with a considerably smaller mandate. That election was almost wh ...

| | | | Canadian federal election 1993 - Campaign: Encyclopedia II - Canadian federal election 1993 - Legacy The 1993 election led to a major upheaval in Canadian politics. Since Confederation in 1867, Canada had been a two-party system, with the Liberals and Conservatives alternating as the government. Since the 1920s, there had generally also been one or more third parties in the House of Commons, but never large enough to win control of the government, leading to what is sometimes called a two-and-a-half-party system. The 1993 election fundamentally changed this arrangement. The Progressive Conservatives all but disappeared, leaving the Liberals ...

| | | | Canadian federal election 1993 - Campaign: Encyclopedia II - Canadian federal election 1993 - Results The 1993 election was the greatest defeat for a major party in Canadian history [20] and one of the most one-sided results ever in a free, fair and democratic election. The popular vote for the Progressive Conservatives fell from 43% to 16%, while their seat count fell to only two, costing them official party status. The two seats the Conservatives won were in Saint John, New Brunswick, where popular mayor Elsie Wayne was elected, and in Sherbrooke, Quebe ...

This forced parties to disclose most donations, but put few limits on who could donate and how much could be given. Individual donations up to $1,150 were given a tax credit, encouraging such pledges. The Conservatives had the largest budget, spending $10.4 million on their national campaign; the Liberals spent $9.9 million, while the NDP spent $7.4 million. The Bloc and Reform spent far less, both spending less than $2 million on their national campaigns. ...

The federal deficit was also extremely high, and both the Reform and Progressive Conservatives focused on cutting it as the path to economic health. Reform proposed deep cuts to federal programs in order to do this, while the Progressive Conservatives were less specific. The Liberals also promised cuts, fo ...

Jackson and Jackson argue that the proliferation of minor parties was an outgrowth of the single issue political movements that had come to prominence in Canada in the 1980s.[16] For instance, the environmentalist, anti-abortion, and anti-free trade movements all had closely associated parties. Each candidate required a $1000 deposit, an increase from $200 in the last electi ...
