Green is the most popular party!
Hey, can you argue with Google's statistics?
In all seriousness, though, it's interesting that the number of searches for "green" also spikes up around elections along with the other three more politically-oriented search terms. Apparently leadership campaigns also work wonders for party searches, given the jump in "liberal" at the end of 2006.
Edit: The dumb thing doesn't have a legend. Well, Google's default colour ordering made it easy to colour-code this sensibly with only a minor amount of manipulation: the blue line is "conservative", the red line is "liberal", the orange line is "ndp" and the green line is "green".
