Rapture revival for today.
As of today I’ve been a faculty member for 25 years. This list from five years ago still applies.
I started as an assistant professor at @Carleton_U twenty years ago on July 1, 2000. We had email, but ‘teaching with technology’ mostly meant using an overhead projector. Here are a few thoughts on what I’ve learned as a faculty member over twenty years: 1/21
It was great to attend my 30th Canadian Political Science Association conference last week and deliver my presidential address. I was especially happy to be unconventionally introduced by @meagancloutier with a quiz for the crowd: "how well do you know Malloy and the CPSA?"
As with my predecessors' talks, the address will be published in the December issue of the Canadian Journal of Political Science. I'm happy to share the text with anyone now though; just ask.
On a final note, I was also very pleased to welcome our new president, Dr Tamara Small of the University of Guelph. The @cpsa_acsp is in excellent hands under Dr Small's leadership.
The narrow Conservative campaign keeps reminding me of a scene in Star Wars.

I keep saying “anything can happen” but one week from election day it feels like we know what will happen. insidestory.org.au/mark-carn…
This month marks the 90th anniversary of the Canadian Journal of Economics and Political Science (CJEPS). The title reveals how the Canadian Political Science Association, despite its name, was a partnership between the disciplines of political science and economics.
The CJEPS continued until 1967, when the Canadian Economics Association was formed with its own Canadian Journal of Economics. The Canadian Journal of Political Science began in 1968 and is still sometimes referred to as "the see-jeps", stemming from the old CJEPS acronym.
The president's opening words of ninety years ago seem timelessly applicable and especially today. @cpsa_acsp @CanEconomics
Thanks to @YasirNaqviCDN for meeting with students from my @cu_polisci class this week, and bringing @s_guilbeault along as a bonus! It was great to hear their perspectives and experience.
Had an insightful conversation this week with @s_guilbeault and Political Science students from @Carleton_U.
It was great to hear their questions and dive into what the lives of MPs and Ministers are really like, and discuss important issues facing Canada and the world.
My last name is Irish, but much of my heritage is Mennonite. Today is the 500th anniversary of the first Anabaptist baptisms (mwc-cmm.org/en/stories/how-m…), and so I thought I'd repost this.
A @TheHillTimes story by Ian Campbell quoting me: having now gone through a second painful struggle this century to remove its leader with no means to do so, I have a feeling the Liberal Party will learn absolutely nothing from the experience.
This Parliament has served as a kind of laboratory for the political utility of the Reform Act as the two largest parties both dropped their leaders. The Conservatives moved with the Reform Act’s lightning speed, while the Liberal ouster took months.

The prorogation of Parliament to accommodate our new national governing document, the Liberal Party constitution, demonstrates that party democracy and parliamentary democracy are not necessarily compatible.
