| | The campaign was dogged by accusations that the party would allow private health care to operate along-side the public Medicare system and introduce two-tier health care, and for threatening gay rights and abortion rights, all of which the party denied. | | | The 2000 Canadian federal election was held on November 27, 2000. | | | New leader Stockwell Day was expected to appeal far more to the crucial Ontario voters, and the Canadian Alliance was hoping for major improvements. |

| | Canadian Election Law & Policies |
| | A controversial aspect of federal election laws is the limits placed on private individuals and groups who are not running in the election but who wish to advertise in support of or against specific candidates or parties. | | | The specific limits on candidates' election expenses for the 2004 election vary from riding to riding because they are based on the number of electors in a constituency, but they will be set at the time it is called. | | | This law was challenged during the 2000 election, by Stephen Harper when he headed up the National Citizens Coalition, on the grounds that the law is an unconstitutional limit on the freedom of expression and of the voters' rights to be fully informed of all points of view. |

| | […] the sine qua non of domestic investment is the same as it is for foreign investment and that is confidence in the structures of public institutions, private property rights, the rule of law that ensures stability and freedom from corruption. | | | Candidates from the London West riding were similarly confused when faced with the proposition that it is WRONG to prevent people from purchasing a service from a willing provider. | | | Lengthening, not shortening, the health care queue is the plan of action favoured by the Statists of Ontario, as illustrated by the responses to the announcement by an entrepreneur from British Columbia that he has plans to open up much needed private clinics in Ontario, including London. |

| | Kornberg, Mishler, and Clarke (1982) find evidence in the 1979 Canada Election Survey that voters care directly about issues as well as candidate images, but that this is more true of educated and politically active voters who presumably do not have to rely as much on candidates' images to judge the candidates. | | | Spending and contribution limits as well as government subsidies to politicians were an important concern, perhaps because the commissioners recognized that election money is such a large part of modern democracy, and because many private groups and politicians testified that such money needed to be better controlled in the interests of electoral competition. | | | Candidates place a high value on advertising if it is an effective way of getting information to voters. |
