  • Reforming Education: from Origins to Outcomes
    Reforming Education Ambitious programs of education reform have been introduced by many governments around the world. Reforming Education is an important study of large-scale education reform in five different settings: England, New Zealand, the Canadian provinces of Alberta and Manitoba and the US state of Minnesota. The book looks at a variety of reforms, covering: • school choice; • charter schools; • increased testing of students; • stricter curriculum guidelines; • local school management. Drawing from theoretical and empirical work in education, political theory, organizational theory and public administration, Reforming Education provides a clearly developed conceptual framework for analyzing reform programs. The author reviews the political origins of the reforms, the process of adop- tion into law, the implementation processes used to support the reforms, and the results of the reforms for students, schools and communities. The explicit political and comparative orientation of Reforming Education enables readers to look at reforms across different settings and to make judgements about the assumptions, processes and outcomes in large-scale reforms. It will be of interest to those working in education policy or public policy. Benjamin Levin is Deputy Minister of Education and Training for the Province of Manitoba. He is also a Professor of Educational Administration at the University of Manitoba. His research interests are in education policy, politics and economics.

  • News Release
    News Release For Immediate Release: March 26, 2013 LIQUOR MART EXPRESS TO OPEN IN BRANDON-WEST SOBEYS MARCH 27 Official Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony to Take Place April 4, 2013 Manitobans living in Brandon will soon be able to purchase beverage alcohol with their groceries when the new Liquor Mart Express opens in Sobeys’ 3409 Victoria Avenue location (Brandon-West) on Wednesday, March 27, 2013. The Liquor Mart Express store is a new model of convenience shopping in Manitoba. The concept was first announced in May 2011 by the Province of Manitoba as part of the New Hospitality Strategy. “When we introduced the New Hospitality Strategy, one of our goals was to implement original and innovative initiatives, like the Express stores,” said Jim Rondeau, Minister responsible for The Liquor Control Act. “Manitobans have extremely busy lifestyles and these Express locations provide a new level of convenience while ensuring that beverage alcohol products are sold in a responsible manner.” The Liquor Mart Express in the Sobeys Brandon-West store is the province’s second Express location to open within a grocery store. “We are pleased to have Sobeys as our partner in this new endeavour,” said Peter Kenyon, Chief Operating Officer for Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries. “After months of planning and preparation, we are eager to open this new Express store and provide Brandon shoppers with the convenience of purchasing their groceries and beverage alcohol in one location.” Manitoba Liquor Mart employees will operate the Express store with the same level of customer service and social responsibility standards found in full service Liquor Marts.
