This is a (mostly) searchable treatment of the Library of Parliament's data on Canada's federal election history (general elections and byelections) from 1867 to 2010. You can filter the results by Parliament, first name, last name or occupation. (Occupation is the coolest!)

Tips:

Search terms, sadly, must be exact.

Capitalize names.

Use accents.

This is not a smart search, so "writer" and "author" are two completely different sets of results.

Use a numeric Parliament number to search by Parliament. 1-40 will work here. Read more at Wikipedia's list of federal Parliaments.

The data file is pretty big, so it needs some time to load.
