Rules of the Game: An Introduction to Canadian Politics is an accessible and engaging introduction to Canadian politics. Author Hamish Telford presents material from the perspective of a first-time voter: the text starts out simplistically, but the complexity of the material increases with each section, weaving theory, history and questions of diversity through the narrative.

With a conversational tone and an emphasis on understanding the narrative of Canadian politics as a whole, Rules of the Game provides students with the vocabulary and conceptual tools to follow politics in the media, engage in political discourse with family and friends, and ultimately to participate in the political process.
