in Canada why Canada has moved in a more conservative direction
為什么加拿大正向一個(gè)更保守的方向發(fā)展
yes to some extent that has happened
某個(gè)程度上這的確是真的
but yet if you
但如果你...
the conservatives in Canada are not nearly as conservative as conservatives in the United States
加拿大的保守派人士并不如美國的保守派那么保守
and liberals tend to be somewhat more liberal maybe one way of looking at it
而他們的自由派則比美國的更開放 從某個(gè)方面來看是這樣的
Alberta being a bit of an exception which even by American standard is fairly conservative
阿爾伯塔省是個(gè)例外 這個(gè)省即使用美國的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)評判 都是非常保守的
but elsewhere I say all of Canada is shifted somewhat to the left
但加拿大的其他地區(qū)都在往更開放的方向轉(zhuǎn)變
in this way when you have to
這就好像
when you have Democratic systems like this as you get a pendulum
民主體系常常被比作一個(gè)鐘擺
and you go back and forth between parties
在政黨間搖擺不定
and if one party gets too strong and tries to push things too far in its direction
當(dāng)一個(gè)黨變得太強(qiáng) 并且過于把事情往利于他們的方向推進(jìn)
then there will be eventual reaction and sort of pull it back
人們就會作出相對的反應(yīng) 把它往反方向推
Canada and the United States may be just out of synchronization to some extent
只是加拿大和美國的情況 剛好處于不同步的情況中
but that's a good point
這是個(gè)很好的問題
but Harper's as received pluralities not majorities
哈勃至少獲得了多數(shù)的票并非大部分
because they basically have a four-fought political system in Canada right you got the conservatives and liberals
因?yàn)榧幽么笮纬傻氖且粋€(gè)四足鼎立的政治體系 四足分別是保守黨 自由黨
the New Democrats in the Party Quebecois
新民主黨及魁北克黨
so that makes this really complicated geographical arrangement
所以各黨支持力量的地理分布的確非常復(fù)雜
Quebec is voting for its own sort of national party
魁北克人為他們自族魁北克黨投票
which tends to be quite left on many issues
該黨在很多問題上都較左傾
and so you get...and also it's a parliamentary system
所以...同時(shí)加拿大采取議會制度
so you get the more complicated coalitions forming
這導(dǎo)致各種聯(lián)盟政團(tuán)之間的關(guān)系更為復(fù)雜
I suppose might be one way of looking at it
我想這是加拿大政治的特點(diǎn)之間
what time do we have? we're out of time

I'll post something tomorrow
明天我會在上面放些資料
but it's obvious under this discussion a lot of you know a lot more about certain places than I do
當(dāng)然是與課程相關(guān)的內(nèi)容 很多同學(xué)對某些地方的了解更甚于我
and I'd love to have your insight
我很愿意聽取你們
any of these states, counties, parts of the country and their interesting voting patterns
對任何州任何縣任何地方的意見 以及對他們選情特征的見解
so see you next week and thank you
