This article provides a timeline of elections in Canada, including all the provincial, territorial and federal elections. The information starts from when each province was formed or entered the Confederation, and continues through to the present day. ==About the tables== The background colour indicates which party won the election. Several provinces held elections before joining Canada, but only their post-Confederation elections are shown. *Ontario's first 13 elections as Upper Canada, from 1792 to 1840; *Quebec's first 15 elections as Lower Canada, from 1792 to 1840; *the 8 joint elections of Ontario and Quebec as the Province of Canada, from 1840 to Confederation; *New Brunswick's first 21 elections, beginning in 1785 (the 21st Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick was elected in 1866, one year before Confederation, and continued until 1870, three years after Confederation); *Nova Scotia's first 22 elections, beginning in 1758; *Prince Edward Island's first 25 elections, beginning in 1773; and *Newfoundland's first 29 elections, beginning in 1832. The most recent election is shown with a box limited to five years of government, as this is the maximum length of office, as set by the constitution. However, elections can be called at any time by an incumbent government. The federal government, nine provinces, and one territory have changed to fixed election dates every four years. For these legislatures, the box is shown as running until the next scheduled election, but one could still be earlier if the government falls due to a motion of no confidence. Nova Scotia, Yukon and Nunavut do not have fixed election dates in this matter. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Timeline of Canadian elections」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
