Canada’s political landscape has changed, but scholars are still grappling with the profound alterations brought about by the internet and social media. What’s Trending in Canadian Politics? examines political communication and democratic governance in a digital age. Exploring the effects of conventional and emerging political communication practices in Canada, contributors investigate topics such as the uses of digital media for political communication, grassroots-driven protest, public behaviour prediction, and relationships between members of civil society and the political establishment. This interdisciplinary volume lays robust theoretical and methodological foundations for the study of transformative trends in political communication and in the relationship between political actors, institutions, and democracy. Original and timely, What’s Trending in Canadian Politics? sheds light on digital innovations while providing a broader perspective on the online and offline dynamics of contemporary Canadian political engagement.
