摘要

Politics in Canada can often seem as staid and orderly as Ottawa, the country's pleasant but hardly cosmopolitan capital. Yet in the space of a few winter days in mid-December, Canada gained a new government and a new opposition. Paul Martin, the new prime minister, is a Liberal, like Jean Chretien, his long-serving predecessor. But with a sweeping reshaping of government, Mr Martin has done his best to disguise continuity as change-and to signal his desire for warmer relations with the United States. Days earlier, Canada's two right-of-centre parties, the Alliance and the Progressive Conservatives, merged into a single Conservative Party. If this is to offer an effective challenge to Mr Martin, and not end up as less than the sum of its parts, it will have to reassure supporters of both former parties that change will not come at the expense of continuity.
