What is this?

Party donations are an important part of politics. They are an important indicator of political support. We try to present this data clearly and comprehensibly.

The data used here comes from Elections Canada and is based on the "contributions as submitted" dataset. It includes all political donations with a monetary value exceeding €500, documented since 2015. All entries that are part of the "Statement of Contributions Received" report, as well as all entries made to "Registered parties," are included.

Due to the high number of minor political parties, we only track donations for parties that meet a specific threshold. The current threshold is set at 10 donations or a total of CA$10K in contributions to that party, regardless of the size of individual donations.
