Greetings. I am a Professor of Political Science at Carleton University, where I hold the Honourable Dick and Ruth Bell Chair in Canadian Parliamentary Democracy. My latest book is The Paradox of Parliament, published in April 2023 by University of Toronto Press, and available here.
.
The Bell Chair was established by the late Ruth Bell. My appointment reflects my longstanding interest in parliamentary institutions ever since I served as an Ontario Legislative Intern after my undergraduate studies in 1992-93, an experience that set the direction of my professional career. Since then I have been a regular observer of our parliamentary system. Among other activities, I served as president of the Canadian Study of Parliament Group from 2009-13. For more on my present and past research in Canadian politics, visit here.
I also have a strong interest in Ontario politics with two books – The Politics of Ontario, co-edited with Cheryl Collier, the first text on Ontario government and politics in two decades, and Fighting for Votes, co-authored with William Cross, Tamara Small and Laura Stephenson, the first book-length study of a provincial election in Canada. For more on my work in Ontario politics, visit here.
Additionally, I am committed to mentoring and PhD career development, with a 2018 book co-authored with Loleen Berdahl: Work Your Career: Get What You Want From Your Social Sciences or Humanities PhD (University of Toronto Press). For more on Work Your Career and PhD career development, visit this page.
I am also Associate Dean (Research and International) in the Faculty of Public Affairs (FPA), Canada's only full-size university Faculty devoted to enhancing citizenship and building better democracy. For more on FPA and my associate dean role, visit here
I have a longstanding interest in comparing Canadian and Australian political institutions and was a Visiting Fellow at the Australian National University in 2016. I offer some thoughts on the contrast between Canadian and Australian politics here. I think the Museum of Australian Democracy, the restored Old Parliament House in Canberra, is the happiest place on earth for a political scientist!
I have been at Carleton University since 2000, after receiving my PhD from the University of Toronto, following earlier degrees from the University of Waterloo and Queen’s University. I was a Fulbright Visiting Chair at Duke University in 2007. From 2012-2018 I was chair of my department, and I currently sit on the Board of Governors along with other roles at Carleton. I am from Elmira, Ontario.
