Examining the electorate

Political science professor Elizabeth Gidengil is a principal player in the Canadian Election Study -- an examination of voting patterns in almost every major federal election campaign since 1965. The study draws funding support from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council and Elections Canada. Professor Gidengil is currently looking at the ongoing federal election -- 110 Canadians are being quizzed daily about their voting intentions. Recent scholarly articles by Gidengil include "Gender and Attitudes Toward Quotas for Women Candidates in Canada" and "The Gender Gap in Support for Quebec Sovereignty."

Her expertise also relates to social policy, the national unity debate, the Bloc Qu茅b茅cois, the NDP and public opinion polling. Professor Maioni has published opinion pieces in the Gazette and La Presse, questioning the Liberal government聮s approach to Quebec and lamenting the role played by extremists in Quebec politics.
