CONTENTS: Foreword 1 Some Bases of Party Support in the 1968 Election 2 Party Images in Canada: A Report on Work in Progress 3 Values, Language and Politics in Canada 4 "Cancel Out and Pass On": A View of Canada's Present Options 5 Howe, Hubris and '72: An Essay on Political Elitism 6 Bizarre Aspects of a Vanishing Act: The Religious Cleavage and Voting in Canada; Appendix: Tables to Chapter 1. SYNOPSIS: This book is largely based on the most comprehensive national election survey ever undertaken in Canada. The analysis, tables, and charts explore Canadian reactions to politics and public issues during the first Trudeau-Stanfield election. The first four chapters are concerned with the characteristics and political attitudes of the main parties in the 1968 election, the image Canadians had of their political parties then and in 1965, the relation between political culture and language-use in Canada, and the anatomy of French-English relations. The fifth essay, which deals with the 1972 election, was written specially for the first enlarged edition. It develops the idea that Liberal elitism, related both to the styles of the party and the leader, partly explains the election outcome. The papers here collected are genuine working papers; they were each written for different occasions and audiences. The book thus contains more basic (sometimes unprocessed) information than might be expected in a more conventional study. Working Papers on Canadian Politics provides the fullest set of data yet published about the political attitudes and attributes of Canadians. John Meisel's pioneering studies of Canadian voting patterns and political parties have earned him international recognition. He is Hardy Professor of Political Science, Queen's University at Kingston. The second enlarged edition contains a new essay on the relation between religious affiliation and voting in federal elections. In addition to shedding new light on the nature of religious voting in Canada, the paper illustrates how the analysis of specific data can lead to a greater awareness of the operation of a political system: the particular voting pattern of Catholics and Protestants points to an explanation of one-party dominance in terms evoking the much-discussed theory of consociational democracy.
