SYNOPSIS: As the twenty-first century approaches, Canadians face multiple challenges. In order to analyze the great political issues of our time, including national unity and the public debt, they must understand the basic elements of the country's political institutions. Canadian Government in Transition provides a thorough account of the history and contemporary working of Canadian political institutions in a lively and accessible writing style. It covers the results of the 1995 Quebec referendum and the impact of nationalism on the Canadian Constitution. It analyzes government finances and describes details of recent organizational changes in parliament, parties, elections, public service and cabinet. Loaded with learning aids, the text includes chapter objectives, focus boxes, a glossary of key terms and review questions. Finally, Canadian Government in Transition is supplemented by an array of teaching aids: an Instructor's Manual, Test Item File, CBC/Prentice Hall Canada videos, and a special version of The Financial Post designed especially for observers of Canadian politics. Written by two critically acclaimed authors, Canadian Government in Transition provides students with the information and tools they need to evaluate the people and politics that will shape Canada's future.
