 Election Resources on the Internet: Federal Elections in Canada - Elections to the House of Commons
Although both the government and the National Assembly of Quebec rejected the agreements under which the Canada Act was passed and denounced the political legitimacy of the Constitution Act, 1982, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that the province was legally bound by the Act.
Between 1962 and 1980, eight federal elections were held in Canada, five of which (1962, 1963, 1965, 1972 and 1979) resulted in minority governments, as no party won an absolute majority of seats in the House of Commons.
The Parliament of Canada consists of a lower chamber, the House of Commons, whose members are directly elected by universal adult suffrage for a maximum term of five years, and an upper chamber, the Senate, whose members are appointed on a provincial basis and may hold office until they are 75 years of age.

 CBC - British Columbia Votes 2005 - Features - Election Dictionary
In other provinces and federally, general elections are caused when the sitting premier or governing party leader requests the Lieutenant Governor to dissolve the House of Assembly and call an election.
Interest in an election is usually measured by "voter turnout," a percentage of the number of eligible voters who actually took the time to go vote.
The outcome of the dispute - an election victory by King - firmly established the principle that a Governor General must agree to a prime minister's request for the dissolution of Parliament and a general election.

 Jones Living in Interesting Times: The Canadian Election and Its Meaning
Canadian elections run a minimum of thirty-five days; this limit reduces the official electioneering (although as is the case in other twenty-first century democracies, all parties campaign all the time), but also intensifies it.
The results from the election are important but not profound either for Canada or the United States.
The Bloc had thirty-three seats heading into the election; they were expected to lose at least half to the Liberals.

 It's 1972 all over again (Canadian Election)
Michael Bliss, the dean of Canadian political historians, likened the Liberal launch to Sir John A. Macdonald's 1891 campaign, the first national campaign to demonize America in an effort to scare voters away from one party or the other.
Along with federalism, checks and balances and the Bill of Rights competitive elections are part of the constitutional package designed to protect our liberties, and eliminating them from the mix bodes ill for the health of our republic in the long term.
In what would be his final campaign, Canada's first prime minister accused his Liberal opponents of treason for pledging a free-trade treaty with the United States.

 Tim Blair: I WAS WRONG
I called this election all wrong, essentially because I couldn’t believe -- despite a powerful economy, correct views on the war, and a lame opposition campaign -- that John Howard could win four elections in a row.
I am encouraged by your election (maybe our voters aren't stupid either) and hope that we can stand with you after November.
Hopefully it's a good omen for our upcoming elections.

When they failed to win a majority of votes for their budget, this was considered a vote of non-confidence and they were obliged to call an election.
Where it gets interesting is with the big ones -- the confidence votes, where losing means a new election.
One thing to understand about Parliamentary systems is that a successful Parliamentary vote of non-confidence brings down the government and leads to new elections.
