Want to Know How MPs Vote?

[Advocat]

A new and potentially very useful site has come to my attention. Though still very much under development: How'd They Vote, it has great potentinal. Information to be documented on the site includes MPs, their web sites, their voting records and statistics, plus an up-to-date list of bills before Parliament.

From their "About Us" page:

"How'd They Vote?" aims to be a non-partisan website which provides a variety of in-depth information on the operations of the Canadian Parliament, specifically, how our politicians vote and what they've said. We take the Hansards from the parliament website, and extract information on bills, members of parliament, votes, and speeches. The Hansards are an excellent resource, but it is not the mandate of the parliament website to fully index the Hansards and extract every nugget of interesting information from them.

howdtheyvote.ca was created in May 2005 by Cory Horner, with a small financial contribution by the ABC Theorists. In the interest of remaining non-partisan, we will aim to keep this site advertising-free by accepting donations to help offset our hosting costs, maintain the site, and add new features.
