Who does the Bloc party of Canada represent? (For example the NDP party represents generally the middle class).
Maru [420]

It should be mentioned that the Bloc party strives to establish the circumstances for Quebec's political separation from Canada and campaigns solely inside the province during federal elections. The party has been labeled as separatist and social democratic (or "sovereigntist").

<h3>How does Canada conduct Federal Elections?</h3>

Candidates and political parties are the most prominent participants in elections, but they are not the only ones. Behind the scenes, election workers are critical to ensuring that each electoral event is fair and well-managed.

On election day, a tiny army of poll workers staffs tens of thousands of permanent and mobile polling places around the country. Workers are also needed in advance polling places and at municipal Elections Canada offices (the latter of which are open for the full election period).

The operations of these employees are coordinated by a returned candidate in each of the 338 voting districts. Field liaison officers are also employed to help returning police with their responsibilities.
