Document Summary
Cea, constituency campaigning in the 2015 federal election, pp. Canadian parties" national campaigns are accompanied by the constituency campaigns that must be run in each of the nation"s ridings. The goals of constituency campaigns in 2015 remained largely identical to those of campaigns of the past. The 2015 election, however, saw some innovation in how local campaigns pursued their goals. Cea, gender and election 2015: continuity with no real change, pp. The 2015 federal election could be broadly defined as about change. Yet, for gender equality, the election represents the status quo: canadian women are about as underrepresented now as they were before the election. For women, election 2015 was more about continuity than it was about change. This continuity can be seen in three places: the leaders, the candidates, and the issues. Like most campaigns, this election focused on the party leaders: by definition, this main narrative was about men: stephen harper, justin trudeau, and thomas mulcair.
