Reviews

Scholars are still coming to terms with the transformative effects the internet and social media are having on politics, public policy, social activism, and public discourse in Canada, in part due to a paucity of empirical research. This volume goes a long way in advancing our knowledge of the seismic shifts taking place in political communication.

Observers of democratic politics are struggling to make sense of the rapid changes in political communication; What's Trending in Canadian Politics? offers many helpful insights into what's changing and why it matters.
