Review

This well-organized reference book begins with a short essay on the 1993
federal election campaign and goes on to provide detailed,
riding-by-riding statistics from that campaign. Everything from final
voting totals, to socioeconomic profiles of the constituents, to brief
descriptive summaries of each local campaign can be found here. Several
appendixes offer important national campaign information and summarize
the constituency results in a series of useful rankings; quick answers
are thus easily obtainable, for example, to questions about which riding
in Canada had the biggest Liberal majority in 1993, or which riding had
the wealthiest constituents. An essential reference for students,
journalists, and scholars who are interested in Canada’s national
political life.
