The Canadian Annual Review of Politics and Public Affairs is an
acclaimed series that offers informed commentary on important
national events and thoughtfully considers their significance in
local and international contexts. This latest instalment reviews
the year 2004, which saw the thirty-eighth general election, in
which the Liberal party was elected to a minority government.
The extension of Canada's involvement in Afghanistan and media
coverage of the Maher Arar inquiry fuelled continuing uncertainties
about national and personal security. Government financial
misdeeds, including the sponsorship scandal and Paul Martin's
management of Canada Steamship Lines lowered public confidence in
political parties and public servants while Canadian-US trade
disagreements over softwood lumber and beef brought challenges to
NAFTA. Nevertheless, the implementation of the Nunavut Land Claims
Agreement, the legalization of same-sex marriage in many provinces,
and the appointment of Louise Charron and Rosalie Abella to the
Supreme Court of Canada were indicative of Canada's continuing
commitment to supporting the diversity of its citizens.
