2000 federal election

The 2000 federal election in Canada was a contest to determine the government's leadership. The main parties were the Liberal Party, led by Jean Chrétien, and the Canadian Alliance, led by Stockwell Day. The Liberals aimed to continue their majority government, while the Alliance sought to promote conservative policies. The election was closely contested, with the Liberals winning most seats and forming a minority government. The result was notable for the close race and the emergence of the Green Party and other smaller groups, shaping Canada's political landscape for years to come.
