[edit] When is this term ever used ever?
When is this term ever used ever? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.68.228.208 (talk • contribs) 01:54, March 28, 2007 (UTC)
- The ministries are a fundamental part of the Canadian parliamentary system. In popular usage, it is more common to talk about the "cabinet", which in most, but not all, cases is the same thing as the ministry. The term "ministry", however, is the legal one used in official documents. --Arctic Gnome (talk • contribs) 15:32, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Ministry's ending?
Why have all the Canadian Ministry articles, got erroneous tenure ending dates? For example: Trudeau's last ministry ended June 30, 1984 NOT June 29 (Trudeau resigned June 30, 1984). These articles imply that the retiring PM's had no cabinet, during their last 24hrs in office. GoodDay 18:25, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
- Only some of them were incorrect, I'v fixed them up. GoodDay 18:43, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
- I was going with the dates used by the Privy Council Office of Canada, which says that Trudeau's last ministry ended on the 29th. [1]. --Arctic Gnome (talk • contribs) 22:19, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Naming standard for government cabinets/ministries
I have started a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions, which will hopefully lead to a consistent naming standard for national government cabinets/ministries. See Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions#Naming of government cabinets/ministries to take part in the discussion. /Slarre 12:58, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
