  Comparative Provincial Elections Project (CPEP)

  The Comparative Provincial Election Project (CPEP) seizes an unprecedented opportunity to study the quality of democracy in five provincial elections within a single month. Fixed election dates in Fall 2011 provide researchers with a natural laboratory for coordinated

  relatively-controlled

  and replicable comparison of provincial politics in Prince Edward Island

  Manitoba

  Ontario

  Saskatchewan

  and Newfoundland & Labrador. With a view to both understanding and helping Canadians to address the country's deteriorating civic culture

  the research team will use its combined expertise to assess whether the depth of Canada's \"democratic deficit\" differs from province to province

  and provide explanations for any variations. Answers to these queries will provide valuable lessons for academics

  officials

  and citizens intent on increasing the level of political engagement and satisfaction across Canada.\n\n
