Canadian federal election, 1993 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (3891 words)
The election was called by new Progressive Conservative Party leader Kim Campbell, near the end of her party's five year mandate.
The 1988 election had been almost wholly focused on the issue of the Free Trade Agreement with the United States, and similarly the 1993 election was preceded by the agreement on the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).
The election saw three minor parties focused on radical reform to the monetary system: The Canada Party, the Abolitionist Party, and the Party for the Commonwealth of Canada, which was also strongly republican.
