Abstract

Last week, voters in Canada’s largest province of Ontario elected a Liberal majority against the odds, with almost 70 per cent of the vote going towards parties on the centre-left. Reflecting on the campaign, Claudia Chwalisz writes that even in a liberal market economy, a campaign for an active role for the state can have serious political traction, and that the Liberals’ victory in Ontario means that the party may have a chance of building the broad coalitions of support necessary to win next year’s federal election.
