About Democratic Reform

Canada’s New Government has an ambitious and extensive legislative plan to strengthen accountability in government through democratic reform.  

  • First, we are eliminating the influence of big money in the political process by regulating the financing of political parties.
       
  • Second, we’ve introduced legislation to modernize the Senate to make it more democratic, more accountable, and more effective. 
     
  • Third, we are enhancing our electoral system to make it more responsive, fair and effective. 

While we have accomplished a lot to date, we will continue to move forward with our plan to strengthen accountability through democratic reform.
