Politicians are doing it here to get voters. May election - Federal. Also, if anyone can answer this; can you list at yahoo and google without www.? ex:http://mysongs.tripod.com.index.html Petra

The hashtag is used so that Tweets can be logically grouped together. For example if you wanted to make a Tweet about the Olympics, you would include a hashtag of #Olympics. Anyone who wanted to view Tweets relating to The Olympics would just enter Olympics in the search and click on #Olympics and you get all the tweets.
The hashtag could be anything e.g. #TaylorSwift, #WorldSeries, etc.
It's probably the same in Canada but here in UK some TV and radio programs (particularly current affairs) give out a Twitter hashtags so everyone can join in the discussion and sometimes the Tweets are read out.
I just had a quick look for Canadian Federal Elections and found #cdnpoli - so you could try that.
Hope this helps

"We are all millionaires, billionaires even, because right now we have today. And today is worth more than all the wealth we can imagine. So spend today wisely. Spend tomorrow wisely. Enjoy the wealth of today, and realize it is worth far more than all the money and possessions of tomorrow and beyond." -Brian Austin Whitney
