The Almanac of Canadian Politics, Second Edition, offers comprehensive profiles of all 295 federal constituencies, including the ridings' voting behaviour in the 1992 constitutional referendum. Narrative overviews describe Atlantic Canada; Quebec; Ontario; the Midwest - Manitoba and Saskatchewan; Alberta; British Columbia; and Yukon and the Northwest Territories. Each riding's history of the 1988 and 1993 federal election campaigns is accompanied by extensive statistical information on population density, campaign financing, ethno-linguistic breakdown, average income and home price, levels of higher education, types and levels of employment, and population mobility. Constituency statistics are often ranked in comparison in and beyond the province and nation-wide. Maps now situate the ridings in their provinces, and in relation to neighbouring ridings. Among the appendices are an alphabetical list of all candidates in the 1993 election, and a campaign calendar of 1993 tours and constituency appearances by the major party leaders.
The Almanac of Canadian Politics, Second Edition, is an invaluable resource for academics, business people, politicians, bureaucrats, interest groups, the media, political science students - indeed, for all concerned Canadians.
