    From Baie-Comeau to Chicago DEFENDING CANADIAN CULTURAL SOVEREIGNTY Jeremy Kinsman Prime Minister Mulroney and President Reagan in the Rose Garden of the White House in 1984. Mulroney’s special relationship with Reagan, writes Jeremy Kinsman, was one reason Canada secured the cultural exemption in the FTA. White House photo Even before the free trade talks began in 1986, the Mulroney government defended Canadian cultural sovereignty in areas such as the Baie Comeau Policy on book publishing. In a major 1985 speech in Chicago, Brian Mulroney himself warned the Americans: “In Canada, we cast the net of cultural sovereignty more widely than you.” Both of Mulroney’s Communications ministers in that period, Flora MacDonald and Marcel Masse, were strong promoters of Canadian cultural in- dustries. Jeremy Kinsman, who then served as assistant deputy minister in that department, recalls how Mulroney finessed the issue with the Reagan administration and within his own government.

  • Ministerial Error and the Political Process: Is There a Duty to Resign? Stuart James Whitley
    Ministerial Error and the Political Process: Is there a Duty to Resign? Stuart James Whitley, QC* In practice, it is seldom very hard to do one’s duty when one knows what it is. But it is sometimes exceedingly difficult to find this out. - Samuel Butler (1912) “First Principles” Note Books The honourable leader is engaged continuously in the searching of his (sic) duty. Because he is practicing the most powerful and most dangerous of the arts affecting, however humbly, the quality of life and the human search for meaning, he ought to have – if honourable, he has to have – an obsession with duty. What are his responsibilities? -Christopher Hodgkinson (1983) The Philosophy of Leadership Abstract: This article examines the nature of the duty to resign for error in the ministerial function. It examines the question of resignation as a democratic safeguard and a reflection of a sense of honour among those who govern. It concludes that there is a duty to resign for misleading Parliament, for serious personal misbehaviour, for a breach of collective responsibility, for serious mismanagement of the department for which they are responsible, and for violations of the rule of law. The obligation is owed generally to Parliament, and specifically to the Prime Minister, who has the constitutional authority in any event to dismiss a minister. The nature of the obligation is a constitutional convention, which can only be enforced by political action, though a breach of the rule of law is reviewable in the courts and may effectively disable a minister. There appears to be uneven historical support for the notion that ministerial responsibility includes the duty to resign for the errors of officials except in very narrow circumstances.

  • Canada's Defence Policies, 1987-1993
    Canada’s Defence Policies, 1987-1993: NATO, Operational Viability, and the Good Ally by Ian Leonard Weatherall A thesis submitted to the faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario ©2017 Ian Weatherall Abstract This thesis uses documents from the Department of Defence and the Department of External Affairs to analyze the defence policies introduced in the 1987 White Paper on Defence and the changes in defence priorities in the period 1987-1993. The paper announced that the navy would acquire a fleet of nuclear-powered submarines to defend Canada’s North, and Canada’s two land forces commitments to Europe were consolidated into a new division in West Germany. The purpose of the White Paper was to improve the functionality of Canada’s military, offer a full commitment to NATO, and portray Canada as a good ally in the alliance. The end of the Cold War in 1989-1991 and a deep recession from 1989-1992 forced the government to reduce the military budget, and the White Paper policies never reached fruition. Canada’s NATO allies valued Canada’s forces in Europe, and the government was initially willing to fund a Task Force in Europe. The decision in 1992 to cancel the Task Force and focus on the core capabilities of the military damaged Canada-NATO relations, but Canada continued to be a contributing member of the alliance and a player in European security. ii Acknowledgements I have to first and foremost thank my supervisor, Dr.

  • Why Canada's Copyright Amendments Will Backfire on Canadian Culture by Paralyzing the Private Radio Industry
    CULTURE IN THE BALANCE: WHY CANADA'S COPYRIGHT AMENDMENTS WILL BACKFIRE ON CANADIAN CULTURE BY PARALYZING THE PRIVATE RADIO INDUSTRY 0 Canada, we stand on guardfor Thee!1 I. INTRODUCTION In many ways, Canada and the United States enjoy a mutually beneficial and unprecedented relationship.' That the two countries share the world's longest unprotected border, in itself, underscores the unique opportunity for Canada and the United States to reciprocally benefit each other. The countries have been "comrades in arms and in the grand endeavors to rebuild a world shattered by war," as well as allies in NORAD and NATO.' Economically, "Canada does twice as much business with the United States as [the Untied States'] next biggest trading partner, Japan."' Philosophically, the two countries "see the world in almost the same way" and "are cut from the same cloth, both offspring of a vanished British empire; both pluralist democracies tempered by constitutions; both speaking 1.

    Pat Carney and the Dismantling of the National Energy Program TammyNemeth* ABSTRACT: The Progressive Conservative energy policy initiative of 1984-1985 represented a distinct change not only in how policy was formulated but also in the party's vision of Canada. The Tories endeavoured to decentralize government, encourage cooperative federal-provincial relations, and develop an energy policy outside the bureaucracy through consultation with the oil industry. Patricia Carney played a vital role first as opposition energy critic and then as minister of Energy, Mines and Resources. She emphasized consultation and cooperation with industry and the provinces and accepted most of their input uncritically. These developments are explored through an examination of the policy-making process developed by the Conservatives in opposition, and then put into practice after they took power in 1984. Tuesday, 4 September 1984 ushered in a dramatic change in Canadian politics when the Progressive Conservative party (or pcs), headed by Brian Mulroney, won an overwhelming majority in the federal election. The pcs captured 211 seats out of a possible 282 with 58 of those seats located in Western Canada.1 Although the pcs did not make energy the focus of the 1984 election campaign, energy policy was certainly a priority before, during and after the election. While in opposition from 1980 to 1984 most of the strong and consistent Conservative support was from Western Canada, representing 52 out ofthe total 101 pc seats. Western Canadians believed that the Liberal party's National Energy Program (nep) discriminated against them, and the oil and gas industry viewed the nep as an unnecessary government intrusion into their business: both interests wanted the nep dismantled.2 After Mulroney was elected as leader of the opposition in the spring of 1983, he appointed Patricia (Pat) Carney as opposition Past Imperfect.
