SANTIN PENA, Oliver. La conformación de la Cámara de los Comunes y los gobiernos de Canadá a través de cinco procesos electorales federales (2000-2011): Segunda parte. Norteamérica [online]. 2013, vol.8, n.1, pp.45-73. ISSN 2448-7228.

This article traces the recent evolution of Canadian politics, from 2000 to 2011. During this period, the country has transitioned from a Liberal government with an absolute majority, headed by Jean Chrétien, to a majority Conservative government headed by Stephen Harper. This change has been the product of intense political-electoral battles that have required that the citizenry go to the polls 5 times in 11 years. This reflects the intense partisan activism that has taken place there in the last decade.
