Citizens are at the heart of any meaningful definition of
democracy. So what does it say about the health of Canadian
democracy when fewer citizens are exercising their right to vote
and party membership rolls are shrinking? Is an increasingly
well-educated citizenry turning away from traditional electoral
politics in search of more meaningful forms of democratic
engagement? Or is an ever-wider swathe of Canadian society simply
disengaging from politics altogether? This volume draws on a rich
array of public opinion data to determine how engaged Canadians are
in the country's democratic life and which Canadians are most - and
least - engaged. Comparisons are made across generations and
educational levels, between women and men, and haves and have-nots
in Canadian society. Today's Canadians are compared with earlier
generations and with the citizens of other established western
democracies. volume raises challenging questions, not just about
the interests and capabilities of Canadians as democratic citizens,
but also about the performance of our democratic institutions. This
is essential reading for politicians and policy-makers, students
and scholars of Canadian politics, and all Canadians who care about
the quality of Canadian democracy. A comprehensive assessment of
how engaged Canadian citizens are in the nation's democratic life.
