Wikipedia:WikiProject Electoral districts in Canada/Member of Parliament

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

These are two examples of what has been used:

Okanagan—Coquihalla

Its MP is Stockwell Day, has previously been an auctioneer, contractor, and school administrator. He was first elected in 2000. He represents the Conservative Party of Canada and is their critic on Foreign Affairs. He serves as the Vice-Chair of the 'Subcommittee on Human rights and International Development of the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Trade' and as a member of the 'Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Trade'.

Nanaimo—Alberni

Its Member of Parliament is James Lunney, a former chiropractor. He was first elected in the 2000 election. He represents the Conservative Party of Canada. He serves as a member on the Standing Committee on Health.

All the information is from the biography at the Library of Parliament. Unless the subcommittee was particularly notable (ie. 'Subcommittee on Solicitation Laws of the Standing Committee on Justice, Human Rights, Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness' for their examination of decriminalizing prostitution), they were generally ignored them. Single quote marks were used to allow the reader to know when the painstakingly long name of the committee ended. The committees were only listed for the current parliamentary session.

Any objections? Is there better wording? Better format?

[edit] Comments

  • Perhaps instead of a single quote, italics could be used for the names of committees? - Jord 15:37, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
  • That does look better. --maclean25 05:36, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
