Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book explores the inefficiencies and inequalities in the electoral system of the Canadian province of Upper Canada in the 1830s. The author presents evidence of gerrymandering, the suppression of voters, the bribery of electors, and other corrupt practices, arguing that the prevailing conditions were a threat to the province's democratic health. The author also details the attempts made by reformers to address these injustices, and shows how their efforts were repeatedly thwarted by a powerful executive that sought to maintain its control over the political system. This book offers a valuable historical perspective on the challenges faced by early democratic reformers and the importance of safeguarding electoral integrity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
